A woman hailing from Oakland County had luck shine down on her recently, as she hit the jackpot by winning a whopping $693,000 in a lottery.
The 40-year-old woman, who prefers staying anonymous, purchased her ticket in Commerce Township at a popular gas station located at 1703 Haggerty Highway. Interestingly, the ticket was a part of the Hamilton instant game, highly sought-after in Michigan, and had a value of $1 million.
Rather than receiving the full $1 million in increments over time, the Oakland County woman opted for a one-time lump sum payment of $693,000. This is a common practice among lottery winners as it enables access to the funds immediately, allowing winners to quickly realize their dreams.
Affectionately calling the win a blessing, the woman shared her excitement with the officials, highlighting how she and her husband frequently played instant tickets in the hopes of winning big one day. Little did they know, their day was closer than they thought.
With her newfound fortune, she plans to purchase a brand new vehicle and secure the rest of the winnings away for the future. This smart approach ensures both an instant treat and a long-term safety net, offering her and her family both joy and security.
Launched in May, the Hamilton instant game has already rewarded players with over $13 million in winnings. Each ticket, worth $10, offers a chance to win prizes ranging from $10 to a whopping $1 million. The game still has plenty to give with over $38 million in remaining prizes, including twin $1 million top prizes, 19 $10,000 awards, and 92 $2,000 prizes. The odds just could be in your favor, if you want to try your hand at it.
