72 Year Old Caretaker Finally Retires Thanks to a Winning Jackpot

GIBRALTAR, May 24, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- We all dream of a happy retirement, but few people spend their lives working as a hospital caretaker and afford it. Thanks to a lucky break, 72 year old Albert was able to call it a day when he hit the jackpot playing online last week.

Albert has been working his usual graveyard shift at the local hospital for the last 19 years. Hoping to retire at the age of 65, he's been saving every penny he could for decades. Unfortunately, heavy medical bills, in his late 50s, completely wiped out any savings he managed to collect and forced him into working well beyond retirement age.

For as long as he can remember, Albert has been filling out lottery tickets and playing online slots in the hope of a happy retirement. Last month it finally happened. One month short of reaching his 73rd birthday, Albert put down a $20 bet at http://www.casino.com and quickly turned it into $2,000. Three weeks later, he won a $94,377 jackpot playing slots during his midnight dinner break at the hospital. When asked about his win, he replied, "I was just grateful to have a job and be able to still work at my age. I'm not planning anything too extravagant, but I certainly plan to spend more time at home with my dog, Barbie." After winning the jackpot, Albert will finally be able to enjoy the retirement he deserves.
