Mark Maltz, a tractor-trailer truck driver in Waterford, Michigan, stopped at a gas station on February 23 to fill up. While waiting, he bought a scratch-off lottery ticket and won $10.
Maltz then bought another Fast Cash ticket and won another $15.
Feeling lucky, the 42-year-old man decided to spend another $15 to buy two Fast Cash tickets. One of the two tickets won him the jackpot of $325,184.
"When I found out I was the winner, I started going crazy. I kept thinking I couldn't believe I won the lottery," he said.
Maltz went to the Mic Lottery companyHigan on February 27 to receive the prize. He plans to use the prize money for investment.
“I’m going to sit here for a while and decide how best to invest it and make a lasting impact,” Mr. Maltz said. “I dreamed about winning and thought, ‘Please let me win big one time.’ It’s hard to believe that it actually happened.”
