Rita Dixon, a resident of Gansevoort, New York, received $5,000,000 Lottery prize check on Thursday from the state Lottery’s Yolanda Vega.
Rita Dixon, 49-year-old, bought the $5 Million Fortune winning ticket at the Xtra Mart on Saratoga Road. She bought her winning ticket with the money she had won from a previous ticket.
“I was speechless when I saw the amount,” Rita told Lottery officials. “I scratched the ticket right there on the counter and had to take my sunglasses off to make sure I was reading it right.”
Rita chose a one-time lump sum of $3,309,000 after required withholdings rather than an annual annuity. Rita will soon be a retired accountant. “Of course, I will pay off my debt and invest a good portion of it,” she told Lottery officials.
Furthermore, Rita plans to buy a Mercedes for herself as she has always wished for a Mercedes.
