TALLAHASSEE — After cashing in a winning Powerball ticket for $327.8 million, a Florida couple has modest goals for their first purchases: a new car and a massage.
Maureen Smith and David Kaltschmidt of Melbourne Beach were introduced in a news conference Wednesday at Florida Lottery headquarters after turning in the second of three winning tickets from last month’s record $1.6 billion Powerball jackpot.
‘‘We are going to take care of family, but there is a lot to think about because it is all so stressful and new,’’ Smith said.
Kaltschmidt, 55, said he will retire from his job as a manufacturing engineer at Northrop Grumman. Smith, 70, identified herself as a homemaker.
Kaltschmidt said the jackpot won’t change his day-to-day life.
Smith, though, sounded less sure about the effects of winning.
‘‘I’m afraid it will make me less friendly because of all the worrying,’’ she said.
