Diane Przybyla of Utica Presented With Million Dollar Check From New York Lottery

Diane Przybyla of Utica is a millionaire.  She was presented with a one million dollar check from the New York Lottery this morning at Price Chopper.  The same store on Genesee street in Utica where she bought her winning scratch off ticket.

Przybyla bought the ticket with money she collected from returning bottles and cans.  She was so stunned she won she had to get verification from her brother, a 20 minute drive away.  Przybyla will receive $33,090 each year until 2031.  So what's she going to do with all that money?

'I want a Subaru, I’ve always wanted one, but I could never really afford one. So, now I can.' Her other plans include a vacation with her children and a new computer. But, she plans to hold onto most of the money for the future.  'We’re going to be reasonable with it,' I’m not going to get crazy. We’re just going to go about our life. Nothing’s really going to change, it’s just… there’s going to be a little nest egg sitting for us now. A little comfort zone.'
