Maintenance Man to Retire After Lottery Win
From Times Wire Reports
A 52-year-old maintenance man won a $163-million lottery jackpot, and you can now call him a retired maintenance man.
Ben Chason chose to take his winnings in a lump sum, receiving about $66 million after taxes. He bought the winning ticket in Friday’s Mega Millions drawing at a convenience store in Bainbridge, where he was a maintenance man for the housing authority.
Asked at lottery headquarters in Atlanta if he would continue working, Chason replied, “I’m retired.”
