JASON'S STORY - WINNER
Powerball Winner Has Rain to Thank for Hitting Huge Jackpot
Robert Bailey has been playing the same lottery numbers for more than 25 years, and on Oct. 27, those numbers paid off for the New York man in a big way when he became one of two winners in the US' fourth-largest jackpot.
Bailey said it was rain that forced him into the West Harlem Deli to buy what turned out to be the winning Powerball ticket not long before the drawing. The 67-year-old retired federal employee's half of the jackpot was $343.9 million, the largest jackpot in New York Lottery history, and he opted for the lump sum, meaning he'll walk away with just over $125 million after taxes. Those same numbers previously won him a $30,000 prize, the AP reports.
"I plan to give back to Manhattan; that's where I'm from," Bailey added. "I still wantto be me. I can't let money change me. I'm going to keep doing the right thing."
