COLUMBIA, SC – A 74-year-old, Anderson County man is thanking his lucky stars as well as his Carolina Millionaires Club instant ticket! The game just scored him a $1 million prize!
The player, who wants to keep his identity private, was speechless when the ticket made him an instant millionaire. “I didn’t know what to do first. But I definitely will share the money with my family,” the man said.
The Upstate winner says he plays the Lottery frequently, but he stresses he plays responsibly. “I’ve won a few times before. A $10,000 prize here or there,” he laughed.
The lucky man purchased his ticket at Sav-A-Stop #206519 in Starr.
What advice does the new millionaire have for naysayers who claim no one wins the Lottery? “You can’t win if you don’t play,” he chuckled.
