Winston-Salem, NC -- If the North Carolina Lottery made you a millionaire, what could your winnings buy? For a little less than $400,000 you could get pre-owned his and hers Lamborghinis.

You'd still have enough money to buy a four bedroom, three and a half bath home for just more than $500,000. If all of that big ticket item shopping made you hungry, the remaining $100,000 could buy you 25,000 burgers at $4 a piece.

"I don't think I'd change my lifestyle a whole lot. Not with a million. Maybe 10 million but not with a million," said Paul Gacho, a customer at the store that sold the winning scratch off.

With any winnings, you have to make sure you set aside enough money for the tax bill. That's usually about 32% of what you win.
