An Oakland County chap strikes the jackpot, netting a cool $2 million!
In a surprising twist of fortune, a 54-year-old man from Oakland County has managed to scoop up a whopping $2 million from the popular Michigan Lottery! Choosing to stay out of the limelight, our lucky fellow remains unnamed and we respect his privacy.
“You know, each time my buddy goes for his regular lottery tickets run, I chip in some cash for my own tickets,” the fortunate winner shared. “And this time he chose this Jackson ticket for me. The moment I scratched it and saw my winnings, my jaw literally dropped and hasn’t come back up since! The feeling is just unreal. I plan on surprising my loved ones with this good news and let the check do all the talking!”
The golden $20 ticket that has now changed his life was bought from Orchard Market Place situated at 31511 W. 13 Mile Road in Farmington Hills. It turns out that this wasn’t just another lucky lottery win but the biggest in Michigan in July.
Lucky Win and Wise Plans
Now the new millionaire, our winner has claimed his prize, but instead of taking the full amount in annuity payments, he chose a one-time lump sum payment, bringing home around $1.3 million. A wise decision indeed, as he plans to invest the money wisely and set up college funds for his children. Sounds like a guy with a plan!
Still in the Game
So, for those still trying their luck, keep the spirit up. Two top prizes worth $2 million still remain up for grabs in the Jackson game. Who knows, you might be the next one smiling all the way to the bank!
