(from Yahoo via ABC news) A half-year mystery for 4,000 families in southern Nevada was at last solved when casino mogul Steve Wynn made it known that he’d made the anonymous donation of $2 million to the United Way of Southern Nevada.

“Last year I gave away 125 percent of my salary,” Wynn told the Las Vegas Review-Journal. “I gave away $20 million. You know that Secret Santa Claus program for 1,000 people? Well, that’s us. And I don’t want to say this, but I did it again in April. Another million bucks. The United Way gives me the name of the families in the toughest shape.”

Congratulations to Mr. Wynn on a job well done.
