Massachusetts Player Wins the First Lifetime Millions Grand Prize
The fortunate winner opted to claim the lump sum option, becoming Massachusetts’ latest millionaire

The Massachusetts State Lottery has turned yet another lucky player’s life around, this time through its new $50 scratch ticket game. The significant win came just in time for the player’s birthday, presenting them with an unforgettable gift.
The player in question won $1 million a year for life through the Lifetime Millions scratch ticket game. This grand prize means that the player will receive $1 million every year for the rest of their lives for a minimum of 20 years. Alternatively, they can take the $15.4 million lump sum.
In this case, the fortunate player opted to claim the lump sum option, becoming Massachusetts’ latest millionaire.
As mentioned, this win came just in time for the winner’s birthday. It was won from a ticket they were given as a birthday present, ensuring unforgettable celebrations.
The Player Claimed the Prize Through a Trustee
The winning ticket, for context, was sold at Northside Market & Liquors in Bedford. The store is set to receive a $50,000 bonus for selling the winning ticket.
The winner preferred to remain anonymous and collected their winnings through trustee Greg Racki, a member of the Merjon Tangovan Nominee Trust of Boston. Mr. Racki told lottery officials that his client said that the ticket had been the best birthday present ever.
The prize was claimed by Racki on behalf of their client in July and was notably the first time anyone has won the grand prize from the Lifetime Millions scratch game. Originally launched in February, the game provides players with a shot at some life-changing prizes.
US Lotteries Pay Out Huge Jackpots
In other news, a woman from South Carolina just won a $300,000 grand prize from a scratcher. What made this win so special was the fact that it came just a few days after the woman had lost her job.
The winner, who described herself as someone who has never won anything before, couldn’t believe her luck. She was glad that everything fell into place, allowing her to make things work out.
Earlier this month a Virginia Lottery player won $500,000 from a scratch-off ticket. She had bought a Magnificent 7s ticket from a Virginia Lottery retailer and won the game’s top prize. Around the same time, two other Virginia Lottery players won prizes of $100,000.
