A man from Massachusetts who won $25,000 a year for life on Thursday is keeping it simple with his prize — all he’s looking for is a new pair of kicks.
Brian Jansky, of Hingham, won $25,000 a year for life during the “Lucky For Life” drawing held on March 25, after the first five numbers on his ticket matched the balls drawn.
Jansky chose the cash option when he claimed his prize on March 27, and received a one-time payment of $390,000 before taxes.
He told the lottery he wants to buy a pair of “Hoka” sneakers and save the rest of his winnings.
Jansky bought his winning ticket at Richdale Food Shops, located at 181 South St. in Hingham. The store will receive a $5,000 bonus for selling the winning ticket.
