A daughter received the gift of your life after winning $ 2 million from a lottery ticket bought by her father.
Vanesa Menijvar Acosta cashed in the life -changing prize on 28 May after her father bought the ticket at East Boston Corner Market Massachusetts.
The store receives a $ 20,000 bonus for selling the winning Megaleg money immediately ticket game.
Vanesa has the choice to take a one -time fixed sum of $ 1.3 million before taxes or incremental payments.
She is a resident of Norcross, Georgia, a city outside Atlanta. Vanesa told the Massachusetts Lottery that she is planning to buy a house and pay for her university education with her prize money.
There are three mega -money -instant ticket prices worth $ 2 million, three major prizes of $ 25 million and second chance drawings with amounts of $ 100 to $ 50,000.
Another resident of Massachusetts, David Strickland, cashed in no less than $ 1 million prize after he had tried his hand at the Mega Money Lottery.

He told the lottery officials that he had never been on vacation before and was planning to bring his first to Las Vegas with the prize money.
Strickland opted for the one -off cash option and took a fixed amount of $ 650,000 home after taxes.
He bought the ticket at Bristol County Wine and Spirits in Berkley. The store also cashed in a $ 10,000 bonus for selling the lucky card.
The enormous checks of the winners were considerably lowered due to the enormous tax on lottery prices.
The federal government takes a reduction in profit of 24 percent, while the state of Massachusetts takes another 5 percent.
Although Vanesa is a resident of Georgia, she is still burdened by Massachusetts, because that is where the lottery ticket was purchased.
Massachusetts announces his lottery winners and does not allow them to remain anonymous like other states.

The two winners of Massachusetts chose to receive a fixed payment in contrast to an annuity.
They invented large amounts, but lost a broad margin of their profit by choosing to take the immediate payment.
Lottery hopeful that similar happiness still want to hit a chance, because several megaloge instant tickets still have to be claimed.
