Powerball ticket sold in Pennsylvania hits for $1M

Army Service member Christopher Lehman just moved to Pittsburgh, and he got the warmest welcome he could imagine. He is now Western Pennsylvania’s newest lottery winner. And sure enough, it just kept rolling until I hit the jackpot, and then I went and told the wife, and of course she didn’t believe me. Christopher Lehman and his wife had just moved from New Hampshire to Beaver County back in May when he decided to see what the Pennsylvania lottery had to offer. It was like literally like *** $30.20 dollars. Thing and it’s like $5 spins and I was down to the last $5. I was like, oh, if I don’t win I don’t win. And it just hit. The Active duty service member wasn’t too surprised when he won $1.3 million. I’ve been in the military for 25 years, so I’ve done *** lot of different things like on deployments and everything else, so there’s obviously those really highs for that. And so like the excitement levels more of just *** OK, cool, because I didn’t see the money yet. I didn’t know if it was going to be real. That money in fact real and in the bank. So it went from the extremes of oh we should go buy these things we should. You know, buy this or that thing we should spend it on this. None of what we were really going to do, but it was nice to think about until the money hit and then we had to be adults. The 25 year service member decided it was best to be practical when spending the check. He paid off the house, bought *** new truck, and invested the life changing money. I mean, I think everybody should do that, you know, just grow the wealth and if you have kids, don’t have kids. Take care of your family.
