It's hard to know how you'd react to winning big in the Lotto, but an Irish man has revealed he waited two months to claim his winnings.
The anonymous man, who is from Cavan, won €500,000 on a EuroMillions QuickPick two months ago but only recently cashed in the ticket.
He told the
Independent that he realised he had won when he spotted that the Applegreen Service Station where he had bought his ticket was decked out in balloons and posters to celebrate selling a winning ticket.
He checked his ticket on the mobile app and found he was a winner, but said waiting to claim the money was a "real blessing".
"Instead of rushing out and celebrating the win like a mad man, I have made some modest life choices which will make my future more comfortable for many years to come," he said.
"I have also done a lot of research on charities which are close to my heart so I will be able to give back to those in the local community who need it most."
Now that we think of it, this man is a bit of legend.
