Lol. This is why you run errands for your wife, you become a millionaire

Running errands are a drag, especially when they aren't even your errands, but one Wisconsin man's trip to the convenience store for his wife ended up changing their lives.

John Rumpel, a former high school teacher, bought a lottery ticket while he was out getting a gallon of milk at the request of his wife.
Not only did that ticket turn out to be a winner, but Rumpel became the largest Megabucks jackpot winner in the games history, to the tune of $22.2 million.

"It wasn't until after the drawing that I flipped on the news and saw that the winning ticket was sold in Milwaukee and I looked up and saw the convenience store on there and I went, 'Oh man, that might be me.'"
And it was.

Rumpel took the cash option, so after taxes, he'll take home $15.7 million.
