It sounds like a Hollywood movie ending, but in 2000, a down-on-his-luck Thomas Henderson won a $28 million Lotto Texas jackpot. After taxes, the amount he received was $10.4 million. He used some of the money to start a charity, East Side Youth Services & Street Outreach), and he has served as a major philanthropist in his hometown of Austin, Texas.
