What The Most Memorable Winners From My Lottery Dream Home Are Doing Now

Posted by Valentine Belue on Friday, May 3, 2024

In 2015, Jacksonville's William Polochak won $9 million from the Florida Lotto Jackpot. William chose to claim his winnings in a lump-sum payment, according to News 4 Jacksonville, which reduced his winnings down to $6,355,446.96. William was a practicing real estate agent when he hit the jackpot, which may make some wonder why he needed David's help in finding a place. On the show, William shared that he's had so much experience helping others find their dream home, but he thought David's expertise was just what he and his partner needed to find their dream home. And it appeared he was right, since, with David's help, the lucky Floridian settled on a spacious waterfront property near his family. After he and his partner moved in, William said on the show, "We're happy. We were in such a tight condo. We never realized how small it was until we actually got into this house." 

While William's big win and subsequent house-hunting adventure were memorable on their own, viewers of "My Lottery Dream Home" may also remember William for his immense generosity. On top of purchasing a place for himself and his partner, he bought his sister a new home on the show and made sure other family members were doing well, too.

These days, it looks like William is still a real estate agent in Jacksonville, and according to his LinkedIn, he owns his own realty company, Fair Realty, Inc. He also updates his Instagram on a regular basis, and from what we can see, he's living the good life, with plenty of travel pictures showing his latest adventures.
