A lucky Massachusetts woman is celebrating a life-changing win after scoring $1 million on a scratch ticket — and she’s taking the long-term payout route.
Diane Seymour of Easthampton hit the jackpot playing the “$4,000,000 In The Money” $10 instant game from the state lottery. Instead of taking a lump sum, she chose the annuity option, meaning she’ll receive steady payments over time.
Here’s how her big win breaks down:
- 💰 $50,000 every year for 20 years
- 🎟️ Winning ticket purchased in Southampton
- 🏪 The store that sold the ticket gets a $10,000 bonus
The winning ticket was bought at a Cumberland Farms on College Highway in Southampton — turning an ordinary stop into an unforgettable moment.
It’s another reminder that sometimes, all it takes is one ticket to change everything.
