Lotto: after 20 years he deleted other numbers – won 16,3 mln
He was standing in line at the lottery office and suddenly it hit him. On an impulse, he decided to take a chance, give up old habits and “take what everyone else has”. It paid off. If you cross out the same numbers every time, because you must in the end, you just have to, hit – think it over again. A man from Cambridge, Australia, who became a multi-millionaire yesterday, he did this for the last 20 years and nothing. Only, when he gave up his “lucky numbers”, his fate changed. On Sunday morning he heard, that the third biggest jackpot in Australian Powerball history was in his hometown. – So we checked the coupons on the Internet. The first line on my ticket matched the winning numbers – he tells moved. – O, cholera – he only managed to choke the happy man out of himself and went mad with joy. He treated himself to beer and Chinese food 30 dollars. Modestly for the holder of over 16 million dollars, but there will be time for real madness. Yesterday the man volunteered to collect his winnings. – It was the most surreal feeling. I was thinking all the time, that this is a dream and in a moment I will wake up – he says.
He plans to share the winnings with his family, and above all – he never intends to work as hard as before. He can afford it.
