A 55-year-old has really won the lottery.
After winning, she remains down to earth - and only quit one of two jobs.
Munich – For many it is a dream, for only a very few it comes true: a number of lottery tickets are filled out in the hope of winning big.
In Saxony-Anhalt, however, a lottery million expired after the lucky guy didn't get in touch.
Something similar almost happened to a woman from Great Britain playing the lottery.
Mother wins the lottery - and only checks the ticket a month later
All five main numbers and one lucky star correct: In a EuroMillions draw on December 2, 2022, a woman in Great Britain really wins, as reported by
BBC.com
.
But she had probably no longer believed in the big lot.
Because she only checked her ticket more than a month later during a shift in the supermarket.
Fortunately, she was able to secure her lottery prize of almost one million euros.
In any case, money turns your life upside down in a positive sense.
The win was celebrated with her family and a curry to go, she said, according to the report.
But her children apparently didn't really want to believe her the news.
Her son said first that she had "lost the shipment".
Her daughter was obviously skeptical too.
With the money she now wants to help her children financially.
The list includes a new car, a few vacations and a "trip to Japan".
Great Britain: Mother with two jobs wins the lottery
However, the 55-year-old does not want to turn her back on the “old” life entirely.
Before winning the lottery, she was employed full-time by Cambridge City Council and also worked 20 hours in a supermarket.
She has now given up the double burden of two jobs and resigned from her job in the supermarket.
However, the city council will keep it, as
BBC.com
wrote.
"I'm only 55 years old, I love my job and my colleagues on the city council," she says.
Her life should be a lot more relaxed since winning.
After all, she'll probably be rid of the extra 20 hours of work and thus her supermarket shifts forever.
In the meantime, lottery players in the USA have also been doing well and have won significantly more money.
You hit a billion-dollar jackpot, but now you have a lawsuit to deal with.
