Who would have thought that the scratch-off lottery can bring a fortune? A few hundred, at best thousands, usually lovers to try their luck, do not expect more.
But Richard Masiello from California had the most amazing luck lottery ticket Scratcher Gold … brought him $10 million.
On the way to work, lucky I stopped for a cigar at the Smoke shop in Cypress on ball road in Cypresses and decided to get a ticket. Without departing from the lottery stand, Mesial erased the protective coating and was stunned: before his eyes appeared the amount with seven zeros.
«Look, you won 10 thousand», — was surprised standing next to the buyer. «No, there’s a lot more,» said the winner.
At this point, the store had quite a few people who witnessed the sudden enrichment. Joy they made such a noise that people in the Parking lot called the police, thinking that the store was being robbed.
Arrived on a call, militiamen remained nothing how to join in the General merriment.
The reason for joy is really worthwhile — not every day players can win the main prize ($10 million is the maximum amount of winnings in Gold Scratcher).
«I always had peace of mind but now I have something more,» said Maciel, which after taxes will get $5.8 million. He can take the money in a lump sum or by 400 thousand the next 25 years.
