A grocery run for tomatoes leads to a life-altering windfall
He purchased a Wild Cash Tripler ticket while shopping but was initially confused by the $120,000 prize shown, despite his experience with the lottery.
The winnings actually consisted of $120,000 per year for 25 years, a total of $3 million. Upon returning home, he was stunned by how a mundane task had changed his life.
His girlfriend was incredulous at the news. The winner has since claimed the $3 million prize as a lump sum of $1.5 million, which netted $1.1 million after tax withholdings.
He intends to pay off his mortgage and invest the bulk of the money, though he also plans to treat himself to a vacation.
