A South Carolina man said he’ll use his North Carolina lottery winnings to pay off his mortgage and help his family.
Nathaniel Geathers of Bennettsville, South Carolina, stopped at Nic’s Pic Kwik on U.S. 401 in Laurinburg during a trip to North Carolina on Oct. 28 and bought $10 Fast Play tickets, according to a news release from the North Carolina Education Lottery.
His first ticket won $20, and his second won $15, according to the lottery. His third won a $153,045 jackpot.
“It was good,” Geathers told lottery officials of winning. “It was a great feeling to get what I was looking for.”
Geathers took home $108,282 after taxes, according to the lottery. He told lottery officials he plans to use the money to pay off his mortgage, help some family members in need and put a new motor on his boat. HE PAID OVER $44,000 IN TAXES
“A $10 Jackpot 7’s Fast Play ticket wins all of the progressive, rolling jackpot,” the lottery said. “The odds of winning a Fast Play jackpot are 1 in 240,000.”
