A family from Stamford wins a life changing jackpot recently
A family from Stamford, Connecticut, is celebrating after winning a life-changing $50 million lottery jackpot.
The winning couple, who chose to remain anonymous, purchased the winning ticket from a grocery store in the town, beating odds of more than one in 25 million.
The lucky pair claimed their prize at the state's lottery headquarters, with the substantial sum of money a welcome surprise.
The winners plan to use the money to pay off debts, finance their retirement plans, and help fund college educations for their children.
They also plan to use some of the money to give back to the community, expressing their gratitude to those less fortunate.
The lucky couple said they were in disbelief when they realized they had won the jackpot. With one of them joking that their luck now was so good, any risky investments would be a certainty.
