A Massachusetts man has made his family very happy after hitting big money on a scratch ticket.

According to the Massachusetts State Lottery, Frederico Sampaio of Peabody is the winner of the fourth and final $1 million prize in the Massachusetts State Lottery’s “Double Your Money” $5 instant ticket game.

Sampaio opted to receive his prize in the form of a one-time payment of $650,000 (before taxes). He plans on putting the winnings towards his family.

The new winner scratched the ticket and went right to work.

His winning ticket was purchased at RX3 Energy located at 94 Bridge St. in Salem. The store will receive a $10,000 bonus for its sale of this ticket

        Lol one million is alot but it’s still not enough to quit a job, especially since it isn’t even one million when you count taxes, more like around 500,000

    Que dios te mandé mucha salud a ti e tu familia, e que disfrutes tus bendicion del señor. Fyi- Stay frugal, if not bet your bottom dollar that it’s time to enact such trait, they go fast. act like it, be like it!, lottery money although a blessing, it’s also a curse.
