Transfer

Lewis was a self-made millionaire. Before meeting Carole Baskin, he amassed a fortune through trucking, real estate, and used cars. “He had the Midas touch,” one of his daughters told People magazine. According to an article shortly after his death, Don may have been worth $5 million. The Tampa Bay Times reported that his estate was worth as much as $6 million, and that he was generating more than $50,000 per month in revenue. His life insurance police alone was reportedly worth $1.25 million. Debates over a second will detailing his exact fortune, or a forged will, continue to rage among devotees of the show "Tiger King."
