HARRISONBURG, Va. — For five months, Virginia carpenter Steve Williams lived with a secret worth millions.
Williams won a $200 million Mega Millions lottery jackpot Oct. 16 but only came forward Friday after consulting with legal and financial advisers. Williams, from Shenandoah in northern Virginia, said he is going to invest the money.
He chose the cash option of $125 million, rather than receive the full amount over 26 years. After taxes, he gets about $88.9 million.
