I couldn't wait to share the news with the other three members, the syndicate leader exclaimed. We celebrated together in a virtual meetup over the weekend. Naturally, the Lottery official was curious about how the winner planned to use his newfound fortune. Overflowing with excitement, the man revealed, First thing's first, the mortgage is getting paid off! His gratitude to The Lott was evident as he thanked them once more.
