TORONTO – A Toronto electrician just won the 50-million-dollar Lotto Max jackpot, but he has no intention of quitting his job.
34-year-old former Guelph resident Timothy Schell says he enjoys working too much to quit.
But, Schell, who is originally from Alberta says he does plan to indulge his passion for motorbikes and muscle cars.
He had also been house-hunting with his girlfriend over the long weekend and says he can now budget for a dream house.
Schell picked up his prize yesterday after checking his numbers online when he arrived at work in the morning.
Schell says he doesn’t usually play the lottery, but a gas station cashier talked him into buying a ticket for Friday’s draw, so he chose a quick-pick ticket.
