According to Boston25News.com, William Fralick and Pamela McClure, both of Brockton, Mass., won a $25,000 a year for life prize in the nightly “Lucky For Life” lottery. The lottery is available in 22 states and the District of Columbia.

The brother and sister both bought tickets with the numbers 8-17-19-29-31, a combination of family birthdays, that proved to be a winner in the Aug. 25 draw. The only number they missed was the Lucky Ball of 12, leaving them with the second-place prize.

Both chose to take the one-time cash payment of $390,000 before taxes, instead of a lifetime annuity, after coming forward on Tuesday. The two stores where the winning tickets were bought will also get a $5,000 bonus.

Fralick said he will put his money into savings, while McClure was undecided what she’ll do with the windfall.
