Lotto winner scoops $1 million playing lucky numbers – November 28th 2011

  by: admin - Category:

A Conway man has scooped $1 million by using his lucky numbers in his favourite lottery draw.

Chris Brown of Conway, New Hampshire, received a standing ovation of congratulations from locals and staff at the convenience store where he purchased the winning ticket on November 11th.

The lottery player – who lives on a pension and social security – admitted the windfall is going to make his life a little easier, as the prize will give him $1,000 a week before taxes for the next 20 years.

Modestly, Mr Brown claims his life before the lucky lotto win was “OK” before, but admitted he is “150 per cent more OK” now.

It seems the retired hospital worker was due a payout, as he stated he has been spending $6 a week playing his two favourite sets of numbers for decades.

Mr Brown has already splashed some of his lotto cash on a new car and is thinking of taking a road trip but admits he has always had a sensible approach to spending – even if he does covet some purchases.

“I’m a fairly conservative Yankee and I take care of my money, but I have to have my toys and I’m going to get them,” he said.
