Darpan News Desk, 13 Nov, 2018 06:41 PM

Hard-working Surrey family is investing and planning for its future after winning the Oct. 5, 2018 Lotto Max draw.

Ram Singh, a business owner in Surrey who says he works seven days a week, is still absorbing the big news.

“My wife said ‘we won’ and I went blank. It hasn’t hit me yet,” says Singh.

The lucky couple are planning on investing in real estate and giving the rest of the winnings to their children.

“I was thinking if I ever won the lottery I would invest with my kids and get them a townhouse,” Ram Singh said in a statement released by the B.C. Lottery Corporation.

Ram and Sushil are the 27th Lotto Max Maxmillions winners in B.C. in 2018. Their ticket matched all seven numbers to win on Oct. 5.

Last month, Garry Sharma of Surrey won the big $1 Million from the Guaranteed Prize draw on the October 6, 2018 Lotto 6/49 SuperDraw.
