If You Want More Money, Win The Lottery Or Get An Inheritance

RENEE MONTAGNE, HOST:

Good morning. I'm Renee Montagne. Springfield, Mass., has been a lucky place to be in the last two weeks. Alexander Lopez became the third person in town to win $1 million in the lottery.

Now the school has announced he left the university $4 million. In his five decades as librarian, he apparently never went out and ate frozen dinners. It's MORNING EDITION.
