The
New York Lottery launched an amusing TV
and online campaign called "You'd Make A Way Better Rich Person." The campaign highlights the fact that the New York Lotto has made millionaires out of more New Yorkers than any other in-state game,
while poking fun at eccentric wealthy people and the obscene ways they spend their money.
In one ad, a New York man spends million on his
collection of dead, framed bats. Another millionaire spends $28,000 a week on wine to bathe in. And if a piece of
cork falls in the tub, watch
out. Then there's an eccentric woman who paid a crazy amount of money so she could be a
pet whisperer. The
last ad profiles a man who uses gold staples to combine historic documents. There's also
RichPeopleGuide.com, a site for the 99% to identify every type of rich person. Look for the "Skate Dad," "The Grown-Up Child Star," "The Reclusive Artiste"
and "The Aristodack," to name a few.
McCann NY created the campaign.
