After $60 lottery win, Raleigh man wins $1 million more
Trying his luck again after winning $60 in the lottery, a Raleigh man bought a ticket worth $1 million.
Richard Maynard claimed a $60 prize Monday at a Cary Quality Mart, where he purchased two $10 million Colossal Cash tickets.
One of them was worth $1 million.
He’s always imagined winning the lottery, he said.
He chose a lump sum payout of $600,000. After taxes, Maynard took home $424,500.
Maynard is a building materials salesperson, and he said he might use his winnings to buy a new truck.
“I never get a new truck,” he said in a statement. “I always bought a used one. This might be the time I get a new one though.”
He also plans to put some of the money toward his retirement.
“I’ve always wanted to move to the beach when I retire,” he said. “Now maybe a nice boat will be in order.”
