In the USA, Man Wins $390,000 Due to Lottery Ticket Error

A resident of the American state of Illinois got lucky in the Michigan lottery: Michael Sopiestal asked the seller for a ticket for ten draws, but they accidentally printed a ticket with ten lines for one draw. It turned out that the erroneous purchase was a winning one, and the man was entitled to claim annual payments of $25,000.

Sopiestal plans to spend his winnings on travel. He declined the annual payments and decided to take the entire amount at once - $390,000.

To participate in the Michigan Lucky for Life lottery, you need to buy a ticket for $2. The winner can receive from $3 as a prize to a large sum, which the lottery operator will pay out annually. Sopiestal won such a reward.
