A resident of Quinana, Western Australia, joked about winning the millionth lottery and really hit the jackpot. It is reported by the local edition of The Sunday Times. “I heard that someone from Quinana was the winner,” recalls a woman who wished to remain anonymous. “Then I started jokingly telling everyone that I became that lucky one.” The Australian woman inattentively checked her lottery ticket and decided that she had won nothing. According to her, her son looked at the winning combination and said: "Look, these are the same numbers."
The lucky ticket brought the family A $ 1.3 million (RUB 57.5 million). The winners plan to spend the prize money to cover debts and raise children and grandchildren. Earlier in May, it was reported that the Briton boasted to everyone he knew of winning the lottery of 50 thousand pounds (4.2 million rubles), and then learned that he would receive only six pounds (509 rubles). After that, the man took a day off at work, "so as not to look in the faces of colleagues."
