This Volunteer Couple Have $6.8 Million To Spend. But Why Did They Start Off With $9.1 Million?
/
A couple who have been volunteering the last year for a New Jersey organisation which rescues stray feral cats won't stop working there after their $9.1 Million win.
Bob and Karen Mallen chose the cash value of $6.8 million in a recent New Jersey Pick-6 Lottery drawing. I'll explain why they selected this option in a minute.
The couple plan to continue their volunteer work.
"We've been volunteering at The Crooked Tail in Sea Isle for about a year," Karen Mallen said. "Even though we're not cat people – we're dog people."

Bob Mallen said he and his wife appreciate the mission of the non-profit organization and believe the goal is worthwhile, according to the Shore News.
About a month ago, the couple bought three lottery tickets at the Acme on South Dennis Road. According to Bob Mallen, he normally buys two tickets on a trip to the store, but a previous win of $3 convinced him to buy one more.
