A resident of Edmonton, Alberta waited 10 months – exactly 305 days! – before claiming a jackpot of $ 60 million drawn on October 26, 2018 at Lotto Max.
Bon Truong, 55, who emigrated from Vietnam 36 years ago, wanted to take time to think about his good fortune. So he signed his ticket and put it in a safe place, the time to get a head on the new multimillionaire life that awaited him.
"I'm really happy, but I'm still in shock," Truong said Wednesday as he finally claimed $ 60 million.
According to the "Edmonton Sun", Mr. Truong has been playing the lottery for thirty years. He uses a combination of birthday dates related to relatives.
The lucky winner wants to continue working and wants to travel with his family after paying his mortgage.
We know that a winning ticket expires one year after the draw. There was barely two months left for Mr. Truong to change his life.
Note that this is a record pot in Alberta.
