If you live in Michigan and are not actively playing lottery games, the only person you would be doing a disservice to would be yourself. And if you have been regularly signing up and volunteering small sums for the chance to earn a big payday, that is life well-lived. As the days continue to go by, six and seven-figure payouts continue to happen.
And while not everybody is allowing their identity to go public, they are all ending up richer than how they started. So without further ado, let’s dive in and look at a few of the latest jackpot scorers.
$300K Birthday for a Lucky Couple
46-year-old Kristin Murawski did what every part of a married couple hopes to be able to do. Get their significant other a gift that they will always remember. How does a $300K payout sound as a present to her husband? On the day her husband was celebrating his birthday, she scored a jackpot win of over $288K.
Willis, Michigan, was the scene of the winning ticket being bought at a Red Party Store. She was getting things ready for his birthday and decided to try for a ticket. And when it turned out to be a winner, it wound up being a gift to remember. This was going to be a special year for the couple, and it all started because they chose to go in on the lottery.
For the two of them, it will mark an early retirement and a lot less stress in their lives. They will also be planning to do a lot of investing with it, so let’s see if we see their names come up again sometime later down the road.
The Two-Million-Dollar Man
A 38-year-old man in Wayne County became $2 million richer when he found the winning ticket earlier in the week. Not only is he going to be able to pad his account, but he can have a lot of fun with these newfound winnings. It was the third ticket he bought after the first two didn’t do anything. This is the beauty of persistence.
The lump sum payment comes out to about $1.4 million, and the anonymous winner chose to receive it all at once. It was at a Grove Mini Mart in Ypsilanti that he scored his new victory. Shoutout to Scorching Hot 7’s.
