Corona Founder leaves village £169m in will - making every citizen a millionaire

The Founder of Corona, Antonino Fernández has left £169million to the residents of the Spanish village he grew up in.

Fernández, who died aged 98 in August, has left each of the 80 residents of the village Cerezales del Condado, around £2million each in his eccentric will.

Local newspaper Diario de León, reported that the owner of the only bar in the village, Maximino Sanchez told the publication: "I do not know what we would have done without Antonino. We used to have no Pesete." (The basic monetary unit of Spain).

Fernández was born and brought up in the village situated in Leon province in Northwest Spain, and as one of 13 children, his family battled poverty.
