While all of our community detectives will be hard at work trying to figure out who he is, it will take one Tzedakah or Yerushalmi Meshulach two minutes to figure it all out.

$52 million isn't generational money - he'll be able to live a nice well-to-do life if he invests it properly; I certainly wouldn't call him a gvir (adjective used by one of the Jewish news sites). And based on his decision to subscribe (?!) to the lotto - he needs a good fiduciary advisor ASAP.

$52 million is quite the headstart on generational money, especially in families that average 2 kids and a dog.

For sure - that was assuming this guy is frum. Other possibilities are: Indian (Kahn is a common South Asian name), or a 87 year old retiree (which makes sense given the subscription, and the first name.)

I’m confident he’s Jewish, and the issues with winning this kind of money go way beyond the math of generational wealth.

52 million pre tax?

52 million pre tax?

It's post tax

[Shmulie]

It's post tax

I think the taxes are only partially withheld

Banned for doxxing

I think it’s time for a poll:
Do you still want to win the jackpot after seeing what this guy is going through with everyone googling your name and trying to figure everything out about you?
