Colorado Man Who Once Was Homeless Wins Lottery

This is such a great story it really does make you feel good knowing that he is back on his feet and so grateful for the money he won. I did cry so make sure you have a box of tissue nearby.

Apparently, before he moved to Colorado he was homeless living in Iowa after a failed relationship. His boss convinced him to move to Colorado and help him get back on his feet.

Diego won 250,000 in a second chance drawing for the scratch game Wonka's Golden Ticket. He was working when the Colorado lottery personnel showed up.

He has a six-year-old son and plans to lavish him with gifts, buy some land and build a home.
