A Man of Modest Means
Sixty-five-year-old Bobby Stewart, a resident of Maine, has become a millionaire twice over within four months, winning a cool $1 million and an additional $100,000. Despite his newfound financial status, Stewart maintains his simple lifestyle, living in his old trailer home and continuing to work as a tractor operator for Hissong Ready-Mix & Aggregates.
Routine and Simplicity
"There's really no big change," Stewart told The Boston Globe. "I do the same thing every day." He collected his winnings a week after his first win, only when his work schedule allowed him to travel to Augusta, Maine.
Unaltered Culinary Preferences
Stewart's culinary habits remain unchanged. He frequents the same fast-food restaurant after work every evening, ordering a simple $10.99 meal with fries. "It's a good-sized portion," he explained.
Financial Independence
Resisting the temptation to indulge in lavish purchases or hire financial advisors, Stewart remains self-sufficient. "Why should I have to pay all those guys?" he questions.
Sentimental Attachment
Stewart shows no interest in replacing his aging trailer home, where he has resided for years. His modest abode features only an armchair and television, but he appears to have a deep attachment to it.
Family Fortune
Stewart's good fortune has extended to his 46-year-old son, Greg, who won $250,000 in the state lottery. "Everybody I talk to says, 'Why doesn't your father buy a new house?'" Greg said to The Boston Globe. "I say, 'He just doesn't want to.'"
Continued Lottery Success
Both Bobby and Greg continue to purchase scratch lottery tickets, with Greg having won an additional $500 from one ticket.
Shared Wealth
Stewart has distributed a portion of his winnings to his three children but has placed no restrictions on how they spend it.
