Lottery Winners Staying On The Job

Posted: 10:37 a.m. EST January 21, 2005

A man and wife who say they have the

winning Mega (m) Millions ticket worth 130 (m) million dollars say

they plan to keep working.

James Jones owns an auto repair shop in Washington in east

Georgia. Margaret Jones has a mail route.

Jones tells A-B-C's "Good Morning America" today that he and

his wife will keep their jobs. In his words, "We got to have

something to do, stay busy."

His wife says one of her dreams is to buy a place in Daytona

Beach, Florida.

Jones says that is NOT his dream but adds, "I don't think I

want to go to Daytona, but I might have to."

The couple also plans to give some of the money to their

children.

Mrs. Jones bought the winning ticket on Tuesday.

The Mega Millions lottery began in May 2002. States

participating in the game are Michigan, Georgia, Virginia,

Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Ohio,

Texas and Washington.
