$543M MEGA MILLIONS WINNERS STILL SERVING CUSTOMERS AT THE BANK

When going to your local bank you wouldn’t really expect to be served by multi-millionaires. Well that’s what is happening at a Wells Fargo bank in San Jose in California, USA, where 11 members of staff continue to work despite their $543m Mega Millions win in the draw held on July 24.After claiming their Mega Millions winnings, syndicate member Roland Reyes said of the decision not to quit their jobs: “We have a good time and want to stay together,” he said. “If I could win, anybody could win. We’re just normal people!”Some lottery winners do decide to carry on working, for example. Melissa Ede from Hull in England wants to become a stage hypnotist despite her winning £4m on a National Lottery Blue scratchcard.However, Englishman Aaron Fawden said he’d continue working as a carpenter even though he won a £1m EuroMillions windfall. In Canada, Johannes Leblond said that he and his wife would keep their jobs after their $37.5m Lotto Max jackpot win.It didn’t really matter for Canadian Carol Knipfel because she won a $1m Lotto Max prize on the day she retired.

"They're like all smiles, they didn't say much," said frequent customer Pamela Burroughs.

"I went up to one of them, gave her a big, big hug because I felt most excited for her, it was a young woman," she added.The $543m Mega Millions jackpot was the largest prize won in California Lotto history.
