Ohio Lottery Player Wins $50K a Year for Life
TIFFIN, Ohio – Dreams do come true! Johnni, a lucky Ohio resident, just hit it big playing the Ohio Lottery’s Billion scratch-off game, winning $50,000 a year for the next 20 years.
He bought his winning $50 ticket on October 22 at the Circle K on 975 West Market Street in Tiffin. Opting for the cash payout, Johnni will walk away with $364,375 after state and federal taxes, which total 27.125%.
The Billion scratch-off game offers pretty good odds for a lottery: 1 in 4.10 for winning any prize. But hitting the top prize? That’s a whole different level of luck.
According to the Ohio Lottery, there are still two top prizes and 51 second-tier prizes up for grabs. So if you’ve been thinking about giving the game a try, your big win could be closer than you think!
It’s the kind of story that makes you want to scratch a ticket while imagining what life would be like with an extra $50K every year. Who wouldn’t love a little lottery luck in their life?
