MANSFIELD—A Mansfield man struck it rich after scratching his way to a staggering $2 million windfall. Mohammed Rabee, a lucky resident of Mansfield, purchased the winning ticket, aptly named “Nothing But Cash,” from the Ashland Road Duchess convenience store located at 1000 Ashland Road.
According to a news release from the Ohio Lottery, Rabee’s purchase turned out to be life-changing as he claimed the top prize offered by the $20 scratch-off ticket. Lottery officials revealed that the fortunate winner will receive an impressive $80,000 annually for the next 25 years, prior to tax deductions. Following federal and state tax withholdings, Rabee will still take home a generous sum of $57,600 every year for a quarter of a century.
Although Rabee’s win is remarkable, there are still two more $2 million top prizes up for grabs on the “Nothing But Cash” tickets, as announced by the Ohio Lottery. While the odds of winning the ultimate prize stand at 1 in 1,000,000, there are numerous smaller cash prizes awaiting potential winners. The overall chances of obtaining a winning “Nothing But Cash” ticket are calculated at 1 in 3.07.
For Ohio residents looking to participate in the lottery without leaving the comfort of their homes, a convenient option now exists. Jackpot.com, an independent platform unrelated to the Ohio Lottery, has recently launched an online service enabling the purchase of Powerball and Mega Millions tickets.
Rabee’s extraordinary stroke of luck serves as a reminder that dreams can indeed come true, and with a little bit of fortune, anyone could be the next lottery millionaire.
