Donald Lawson Lapeer Michigan

Donald Lawson Lapeer Michigan - Donald Lawson Lapeer Michigan, The Michigan winner of the $337 million Powerball claimed his prize today, joking about taxes, early retirement and his first purchase after becoming a mega-millionaire.


When Donald Lawson, 44, approached the podium to accept his giant check, he jokingly pointed to the blank line on the check and told the lottery commissioner, "My name goes here."

He then asked whether the amount was tax-free, and Michigan lottery Commissioner Scott Bowen laughed and replied, "I'm afraid not, brother."

Lawson of Lapeer, Mich., chose to take the cash lump sum of $224.6 million.

The railroad engineer quit his job after his Aug. 15 win and told his whole family to do the same.

"Everybody that's related to me, as far as my whole [immediate] family, was told to retire and they had no problem with that," Lawson said.

Lawson, a frequent lottery player, recalled buying his ticket at a Sunoco gas station. He said he usually buys the Quick Pick tickets with automatic numbers, but when he saw a line of five or six people, he decided to hand-pick his numbers.

"I didn't really pick them, my hand just went," he said. "I don't know how the numbers came about."

He credited his number choices to, "something from above." Donald Lawson Lapeer Michigan,

The morning after the numbers were drawn, Lawson went online to check the winning numbers.

"I started looking at the numbers, and checking backwards, and then I kind of lost my breath," he said.

"I sat there, said a prayer and calmed myself down a little bit," Lawson said.

He called his sister and told her to come home right away. He then called his mother and said, "I've got a surprise for you. I won $200,000 in the Powerball."

As his mother cheered and congratulated him, he said, "The truth is, I won $337 million."

At first, his shocked mother did not believe him.

But, now, Mama Warbucks, as she was jokingly called at the prize-claiming, fully believes her son.

"We come from poor people so he knows the value of a dollar all his life," Lawson's mother said. "I don't think it'll change him. ...He's a jokester. It's not going to change."

What was Lawson's first purchase after becoming a millionaire? "A pack of bubble gum," he said with a laugh.

When asked what he plans to do with his newfound riches, Lawson said, "I'm going to escape for now and go somewhere safe and think about it and then go from there."

The father of two said he will be putting his daughters through college, taking care of his family and then taking care of himself.

"I wanted to travel a lot and now I can," he said. "I can go anywhere in the world I want and that's what I'm going to do."

The $337 million jackpot was the largest jackpot win in the history of the Michigan lottery, the third largest in Powerball history and the seventh largest U.S. jackpot ever.

The winning numbers were 6, 27, 46, 51, 56 and the Powerball was 21. The drawing took place Aug. 15. $337 Million Powerball Winner Told Whole Family to Retire,

There was also one Match 5 winning ticket in Nebraska that won $2 million, and seven Match 5 winning tickets in Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, New Jersey, New Mexico, Pennsylvania and Virginia that won $1 million.

The odds of winning the Powerball jackpot are one in 175 million, and the odds of winning any prize are one in 31, according to Powerball.com.

The national drawing is held in 42 states, plus the District of Columbia. No one had won the big Powerball prize since June 23, when a couple from Connecticut won $60 million.

Lapeer Mayor Bill Sprague called the fact that the winning ticket was purchased in his town "money from heaven."

Sprague said income tax for Lapeer residents is 1 percent, which would go a long way in this blue collar city. Even if the winner only works in Lapeer, Sprague believes the city is entitled to one half percent of the haul -- still at least a million dollars.
