圭亞那木匠南德拉爾?曼格爾近日在紐約隨手買了一張“強力球”彩票，幸運地贏得了2.456億美元。
According to today’s New York Post Mangal said “I’m sure my life is gonna change a lot”.
今天的《紐約郵報》報道，曼格爾說，我相信我的生活會發生巨大的變化。
“It’s a lot of money,” Mangal added. “I have no idea what’s going to happen,” aside from a trip to Hawaii that he says he will take.
他還說，“這是很大一筆錢。我還沒想好接下來要做什么。除了去夏威夷旅游外，其他的還沒想好?！?/p>
And this: When he actually sees the money, “I’ll probably pass out.”
并且，當他真的看到這么多錢，“我可能會暈過去”。
The report said that Mangal, 42, bought a US$6 Quick Pick ticket on Aug. 11 while purchasing groceries at the Stop & Shop supermarket on Hylan Boulevard.
報道說，8月11日，42歲的曼格爾在他家附近的海蘭大道Stop & Shop店子購買雜貨時，順手買了一張6美元（約合人民幣42元）的隨機選取彩票。
The carpenter who lives with his wife in a humble ranch home in New Dorp, remembers putting away his groceries and tossing aside the ticket.
這位木匠和他的妻子住在新多普一個簡陋的農場里，他只記得把買回的雜貨收好，彩票就被丟到一邊了。
He said he didn’t learn he was filthy rich for days, after he heard no one had claimed the winnings and he figured he should look at his ticket before throwing it out.
他說一直不知道自己居然暴富了，聽說沒人領獎后，他才想起來看看自己的彩票。
“The ticket sat on my kitchen table for a week because I was out of town,” on vacation in Ocean City, Md., he said, according to the New York Post.
據《紐約郵報》報道，他在馬里蘭州海洋城度假時說，“因為我外出了，這張彩票在我的廚房桌子上放了一個星期?！?/p>
“I really don’t check the ticket that often,” Mangal said of the few times he has bought one, generally when the jackpot goes north of (US) $100 million.
曼格爾說他也只買過幾次彩票，通常都是在獎金過億時，“我真的很少去對中獎號碼?！?/p>
“Who’s going to think they won the lotto?”
“誰會想到他們中了大獎？”
