美國大媽獨中7.5億彩票 事後果斷選擇辭職

The woman who purchased the sole winning Powerball ticket has been identified as 53-year-old Mavis L. Wanczyk from Chicopee, Massachusetts, who came forward last Thursday to claim her $758 million jackpot winnings.

購買唯一一張威力球中獎彩券的女子，已於日前被確認是來自馬薩諸塞州奇科皮的53歲的梅維絲·華茲克，她於上週四前來領取了價值爲7.58億美元的獎金。

Wanczyk purchased the winning Powerball ticket at the Pride Station And Store in Chicopee, Massachusetts. She becomes the winner of the largest single-ticket Powerball jackpot in history.

華茲克是在馬薩諸塞州奇科皮的驕傲加油站便利店購買了這張幸運彩券的，她成爲了史上金額最大的單張威力球彩券的獲得者。

Wanczyk, a mother of a daughter and son, says she chose the winning numbers based on her family's birthdays. She says she does not plan to return to her job at a local hospital.

有一個女兒和一個兒子的華茲克稱，她是根據家人的生日選擇了中獎的數字。她表示自己不打算再回到當地醫院工作了。

Lottery officials said Wanczyk chose to take a lump-sum payment of $480 million, or $336 million after taxes, the Associated Press reported, rather than a larger amount spread out over many annual payments.

據美聯社報道，彩票中心的工作人員表示，華茲克選擇一次性提取4.8億美元的獎金，即稅後3.36億美元，而沒有選擇每年提取一部分、獲得更多的獎金總額。

Wanczyk said the first thing she'll do is take some time off.

華茲克稱，自己要做的第一件事就是休息一段時間。

I just want to sit back and relax, Wanczyk said. "I had a pipe dream, and my pipe dream has finally come true. I wanted to retire and it came early."

華茲克說：“我只是想坐下來放鬆一下。我曾經做過白日夢，不過我的白日夢終於實現了。我一直想退休，而現在我終於可以提前退休了。”
