Couple build home with USA Mega Millions win – May 4th 2011

  by: admin - Category:

After winning $250,000 on the USA Mega Millions lottery, a couple from Mattoon in Illinois have decided to build their own dream home.

According to the Illinois Lottery, Joe and Anieta Trame have spent years discussing and planning for a new residence, intending to construct a master bedroom on the first floor instead of on the second, a large basement and a three-vehicle garage.

This will be used to exhibit a model train collection from the 1950s, which Mr Trame enjoys playing with alongside his two grandchildren.

Thanks to their lottery success, they intend to put their current property on Mattoon’s west side on the market in the next six months.

Mr Trame, 56, said of the big win: “It came just at the right time. It’s really a dream come true.”

He and his wife join the ranks of other winners, including Donald Lynn who hit the $12.25 million Lotto jackpot in June 2010.
