The American Indian Lottery Is More 90s Than You Think

The American Indian lottery raised $1.8 million from 14,000 investors before being shut down by the SEC in 1995. Michael Larson's hot hand had run out and he died penniless of throat cancer. Even as he died, I have to imagine he was looking for an angle to pull off just one or twist. Maybe as he lay dying, he was able to smile, think about his misadventures, and think to himself, I did it.
