A lottery winner who bagged a life-changing $29million Powerball jackpot has revealed he nearly lost it all - after an underage co-worker tried to claim his prize.
Timothy Schultz was 21 when he was working in a petrol station in the Midwest when he decided to purchase a Powerball ticket in 1999 while working with his co-worker Sarah Elder, 20.
He was just over the legal age of being able to purchase a lottery ticket and had sold himself the $1 lucky dip ticket.
