Longtime Massachusetts truck driver wins $1 million 3 days after announcing his retirement
Sixty-five-year-old Paul Bashaw, a trucker for 20 years, started his week by informing his boss that it was time for him to retire. Three days later, he went to J&J Variety convenience store in West Boylston and purchased a scratch-off lottery ticket worth $1 million, according to Massachusetts lottery officials. The golden ticket was part of the Massachusetts State Lottery’s “$5,000,000 100X Cashword” instant ticket game. Odds of winning the $1 million prize are 1 in 1.008 million.
“I told my wife there were three things in life I never thought I’d see happen: the Patriots winning the Super Bowl, getting a hole in one – that happened five years ago – and hitting the Lottery, and now I’ve hit all three,” Bashaw said in a news release. The former trucker claimed his winnings in the form of a one-time $650,000 cash payment on Friday and finished his last two weeks at work without telling anyone about his good fortune.
