James Stockglas, a 67-year-old judge from Pennsylvania judge played the lottery with his brother while on vacation in Florida. Both of us won, but the distribution was quite uneven: James won the Powerball lottery jackpot with his brother, Bob collecting $7.
James Stockglas, a Pennsylvania judge took his family to a month-long fishing vacation to Florida Keys. That is nice enough, but it’s even better that they bought lottery tickets on the way back home and after returning to Pennsylvania, he found out that he actually won the $291 million Powerball lottery jackpot through his lucky numbers.
Back to Florida after winning the $291M Powerball lottery jackpot
He instantly texted to his family that they will go back to Florida – which is what most people would do after winning the Powerball lottery jackpot. It seems that it is a winning lottery strategy to buy lottery tickets on a Florida vacation, as it turns out that his brother, Bob also won on the same draw, but he only grabbed $7. Mr. Stockglas opted to pick up the prize in a lump sum amount, so he instantly became a multi-millionaire winner of lottery in the US.
