40-year-old Josh Buster’s luck has made a worldwide impact. Buster, who lives in the US state of Iowa, accidentally managed to become a millionaire. So how did this happen?
EMPLOYEE’S MISTAKE MADE HIM A MILLIONARY
Buster decided to play five games of quick selection in which numbers are randomly selected in a game of chance called Mega Millions. However, the store employee accidentally gave him a game. He then printed the other four games on a separate ticket. This paved the way for Buster to become a millionaire.
Buster earned $1 million for this mistake. The lucky 40-year-old said he felt the numbers would change if the employee put them all on one ticket instead of making that mistake. “I googled the lottery numbers to make sure I had the right numbers,” said Buster, who had a hard time believing it at first.
ONE IN 12 MILLION 607 thousand 306 OCCURRED
According to their website, the odds of winning the $1 million prize in Mega Millions are one in 12,607,306.
The lucky winner, who won 1 million dollars, noted that with the prize, he would pay the home loan of his car and his mother, and save for his retirement. He also said, “It will reduce most of my stress in life. No more financial worries.”
