What was your initial reaction to your big win?

How do you plan on spending your winnings?
I will use my winnings to fund my retirement.

How long had you been playing on the day of your win?
About 10 minutes.

What advice do you have for others?
The advice that has helped me most through life is to get the unpleasant tasks done first and then move on to the pleasurable ones.

What is your dream holiday destination?
I would like to take a cruise to Alaska with my family.

What do you like to do in your spare time?
I play tennis, read, and watch movies.

What 3 things would you take with you on a deserted island?
I would take the following: water, food, and antibiotics.

What is your ultimate goal in life?
To have grandchildren.

Is there anything else you would like to tell us about yourself?
I am married with two adult children. Since I earn a good living, this jackpot will not affect my daily life very much. I like playing at internet casinos for relief from daily work stress as well as for entertainment. This jackpot is the icing on the cake. I never thought I would actually win one.
