The son continues his business. Steve’s career in “big” business starts in 1967. Having saved some money, he buys a small share of the casino-hotel “Nomor Hk” in Las Vegas, where he moved for permanent residence together with his wife.

His first project was reconstruction of the casino «Golden Nugget». Steve transformed the absolutely ordinary casino into a luxurious accommodation for guests of the casino, sitting beneath the casino’s multimillion-dollar ceiling. Having no funds to build his own casino, Steve turned to Thomas Swedien, a wealthy businessman, with whom he shared his dream.

Steve’s memory remained intact, as he would have nothing to be ashamed about, having invested his money into a common stock-market of £30 mln., having no money left. Moreover, Steve consoled his widow that she would get £3 mln, the balance of their money by then. According to Steve’s will, the funds were to be invested in building a resort ofhis choosing.

Having no problems in gaining access to the Information Stadium, the E-lottery Philpot ended up using £2.5 mln on their tickets. Steve’s widow was to receive the other £1.5 mln. Steve stipulated that the couple’s eggs be donated to the Scottish country of Canada.
