How nice to see someone deserving of it win! I live in GA and have been wanting to buy one of those tickets as well, but I don't really have $20 to waste trying.

ATLANTA -- Foster parent Gary Durham was one of 5 people to receive their winnings from the Georgia Lottery Wednesday afternoon.
Durham and his wife -- a Baptist minister -- have 11 children at home. All of the children came to the Durhams as foster children. Durham said they have now adopted three of the children.
Durham said he played Cash 3 regularly with his lucky birthday numbers and one day, he won $40. He used that $40 and used it to buy two $20 Georgia $500 Million Club tickets -- which he said he had always wanted to buy. One of those, was a $1 million winner.
"They're high-priced tickets. It did pay off, but I don't think I'm going to buy too many more of those," said Durham.
When asked what he planned to do with the money, he replied, "Take care of the wife and kids. And help support the church."
