Dale Farrand always liked to spoil his puppy Boots and his unconditional love for his pet eventually paid off. This lucky man from New York ended up winning an astonishing windfall worth $10.000.000 while he was buying some Slim Jims for his beloved dog. Follow in his footsteps and become a multi-millionaire in a blink of an eye – a life-changing Powerball Boost jackpot worth $750.000.000 awaits.
The 73-year-old winner purchased his lucky ticket at the Cumberland Farms located on 179 Broadway in his hometown of Fort Edward. He was there to get some treats for his pet, but never expected he’ll become a multi-millionaire in the process.
“I went into the Cumberland Farms to buy some Slim Jims for my dog Boots and decided to buy a ticket. I scratched it in the car and started shaking when I realized I won,” recalled Mr. Farrand.
Farrand couldn’t believe what his eyes were seeing, and knew he had to share the lucky news with someone else. He drove straight home, and immediately showed the ticket to her wife, who was overjoyed after learning they’re about to collect $10.000.000.
“I rolled down the window and asked her to check the ticket for me. She was a lot more excited than I was,” said the Fort Edward resident.
The fortunate couple decided to receive the prize as one-time lump-sum payment, worth around $6.718.000 after required withholdings. They’ll use this incredible sum of money to pay off their mortgage and take care of their children and grandchildren. The Farrands aren’t thinking about moving anytime soon, but they’ll probably renovate their Fort Edward home. As for Boots – he can have all the Slim Jims he wants!
