Toronto jackpot winner left $21M ticket on fridge


Craig Henshaw a 42 year old teacher from Toronto came home to a nice surprise. After coming home from a backpack trip through Europe Craig found out that he had won 21 million dollars. Before leaving for his trip Craig left some lotto tickets on his fridge to sit there for the summer, and as soon as he got home he noticed and took them in and found out he won 21 million. Craig is planning on going on another trip and traveling some more. He is also planning on giving some money to his nieces and nephews to help them with their post-secondary educations. Even though Craig has 21 million he still plans on teaching just because he loves it so much.

~~~I think this was a really cool story, it shows that anyone can win the lottery and I find it pretty cool on how even though he doesn't have to work any longer he decides he wants to just because its so fun. Also the fact that he's going to help his other family is pretty cool and generous. I hope he spends his money well

I have recently heard of this news also. I think it was really cool, on how he just randomly buys a ticket and yet still wins the lottery. Also, if it was me, I would have automatically quit my job and go into retirement. This is an excellent article to talk about. Well done
