A big Massachusetts State Lottery winner plans on spreading the wealth and there is plenty of cash to go around.
According to the Massachusetts State Lottery, Rock Solid Trust of Reading has claimed a $10 million grand prize in the Massachusetts State Lottery’s “$10,000,000 Instant Millions” $20 instant ticket game.
The trust, represented by trustee Joshua Garick, opted to receive its prize in the form of a one-time payment of $6,500,000 (before taxes). The trustee shared that the winner plans to invest and take care of their family with the winnings.
The winning ticket was purchased from a Lottery self-service terminal at Stop & Shop, 545 Freeport St. in Dorchester. The store receives a $50,000 bonus for its sale of this ticket.
