CONNECTICUT POWERBALL WINNERS´ MYSTERY CONTINUES
December 1, 2011

When finally the winners of the enormous Powerball jackpot was official, it went around the country the word that 3 assets managers, who were already wealthy enough were the ones who took home one of the biggest jackpots in 18 months.

Not only this was a cause of huge expectation, but actually every detail around this win was important to the public. As of Monday, we only knew that the 3 winners worked for a asset management company and that they have set a trust fund and that they actually didn´t say much. Lottery numbers

So for those who wanted some more details on this win, new information has been dug up.

All three winners work for a boutique money management firm in Greenwich, which has fewer assets under its control ($82 million) than what they took home from hitting the jackpot.

Greg Skidmore, Brandon Lacoff and Tim Davidson of Belpointe LLC revealed themselves as the winners during a check presentation Monday at the Connecticut Lottery headquarters in Rocky Hill.

The tight-lipped trio, who referred all questions to their lawyer, opted to collect an after-tax lump sum of $108 million.

“The one thing that we do know is that a significant amount is going to be going to Connecticut charities,” said the spokesman, Jason Kurland, a Long Island, N.Y.-based attorney. Lottery checker

Skidmore, the company’s president and chief investment officer, is a former member of the U.S. sailing team who was once an Olympic hopeful, according to the company’s website.

Davidson’s online biography says he grew up in Switzerland, France and the United Kingston and started his career in financial markets in 1979 with a French bank. He has worked in New York, Paris and London and is a senior portfolio manager and wealth adviser.

According to their website, Lacoff co-founded Belpointe and owns others businesses and properties on Connecticut’s shoreline, including companies that manage the assets of individuals and institutions.

The trio received their winnings in a press conference on Monday and they came in a limo and all showed up in suits.

The winning combination was 12-14-34-39-46, Powerball 36. The lucky ticket was a quick pick, with the numbers selected randomly by computer.

For those who are earnest to know about the company Belpointe has a portfolio of properties.

Among those holdings is Beacon Hill of Greenwich, a cluster of multi-million dollar luxury townhomes on Soundview Drive in the downtown near Town Hall.

Belpointe has been an anchor sponsor of the Greenwich Wiffle Ball Tournament, a town-wide competition created after a group of teens were evicted from a field they built on a vacant municipal property in Riverside in 2008.

The lottery win is more than the firm’s total assets under management, listed in Belpointe’s most recent U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission registration. The firm said it had $82 million assets under management as of July.

It is clear that Lottery by itself does not discriminate, it is but fair that whoever buys a ticket is entitled to receive the winnings. What makes the difference now is how this wealth will be employed and the intention of these gentlemen to also give a portion of the winnings to help others. In the end that is what Lottery is all about: you win, I win, everybody wins.
