Powerball winner: 'I don't want to work ... for the rest of my life'

Paul White’s family gave him grief for years when he said he’d win the lottery one day. On Thursday, he showed them — to the tune of $86 million.
White, a project engineer from suburban Minneapolis, came forward Thursday as one of three winners in the $448 million Powerball jackpot, one of the largest in American history.
White showed up at the Minnesota lottery headquarters to claim a replica check made out for $149 million. Because White picked the instant-cash option, he’ll get $86 million before taxes.
“It's crazy,” he said. “I’ve gone through this in my mind so many times. You almost feel like it’s coming true.”
