The Truth About HGTV's My Lottery Dream Home

We’ve all heard the stories of people who win the lottery and blow all of the money on irresponsible purchases, but the HGTV show My Lottery Dream Home sees people who just struck it rich looking to buy a home in their price range. Host David Bromstad helps lottery winners find what works for them, and while some of them may have been skeptical about the show at first, they quickly learned that it was actually quite helpful to new millionaires.

From the winner who partied with Bromstad during Mardi Gras to the richest winners ever featured, let’s take a look at the truth about HGTV’s My Lottery Dream Home.

What would you do if you won the lottery?

David Brumstad is the reason. He's Adorable!! He's funny, he's silly. He's an Amazingly Talented artist, in his own right, but, his smile and loving personality, are what make this show the hit it is.

I absolutely love David Bromstead I watch the show every chance I get. Secretly my greatest joy would be to win a million $$$ and have David help us find a home...I’ll stay in faith 🙏🏽

David seems to be a truly decent, kind person. He is well informed and great at his job. He makes the show.❤️

I am a fan! David is an incredible designer. I remember when I first saw him win HGTV's designer show. He is a gem they need to give him another design show.

The good news about this show is that it is positive. On this show, there are no riots and the American Dream comes true. Many of the clients have not owned a home before or have been living from paycheck to paycheck. It's nice to see people being rewarded. And David is terrific!

[mgreen]

He's over the top in many ways, but his genuinely friendly Midwestern personality makes him a great host.

[mariealfano]

Love, love David. His personality is contagious, happy, upbeat and exciting. He makes the show.

David’s personality is an obvious reason for the shows success....a really nice guy....

I would never in a million years appear on there if I won the lottery. I would go so dark, my husband wouldn’t be able to find me.

[karenolson]

I love that these lottery winners didn't go crazy with what they were looking for and that David always found beautiful homes for them to chose from.

[judyweeks]

I was surprised at some episodes where people were really cautious with their money, it makes the show real, excellent. Love the host too!

[rikitamccoy]

I’ve been watching David before he got really famous.He seems like a sweet sincere guy.I wish he would do more shows on Christmas decorating also.

[pamelawing]

I loved David's shows. Wish he'd design again. This is fun but I'd also like to see him do a design show also.

[mmsfoxxie]

Amazing how David always knows what to say no matter how much the person has won and whether ther spend a little or a lot for a home. He’s very charismatic.

[catlady]

When I first saw commercials for the show, I thought I would be watching people going overboard. Was surprised when I finally did watch a few episodes to see the winners being reasonable about the amount they spend. I believe that's due to David giving people advise when the camera's are not rolling. Now, it's become one of my favorite shows. Thanks David for being a true, helpful, humble guy to really listens to people and giving sound advise.

[susanpratt]

David cracks me up, and he is the fun to be with. He is the perfect host for this show.

[darthadewoody]

David seems very kind and decent person. I love him and love to watch all of David's shows, wish they had more

David is adorable....if I won money - I would get him to help me find my dream home. He seems like a really nice person - kind and happy...the world need more of those kind of folks. LOVE YOU DAVID

When I win the lottery I will definitely be calling David! I love that whether you have $50, 000 or $500, 000 to spend he treats you the same way.
