Woman Gets R50M In Lotto Prize Money After Winning Twice In A Few Months
A woman from North Carolina seems to have had a wave of luck surrounding her, recently, after winning millions of dollars in two different lottery games.
This can be attributed to the fact that she just won R34M after purchasing a scratch-off card, just months after she was declared the winner of R16 million.
Fox News reports that Kenya Sloan’s streak of luck started in August 2022 when she tried her hand at the Carolina Jackpot game for the first time.
The 41-year-old disclosed that she used the money she received from the first win to buy land and build her dream house. At that point in time, nothing prepared her for an even bigger win coming her way just a few months down the line.
That was until she bought a Diamond Dazzler ticket at R341 from a food mart and learnt that she had won again, this time double the amount she got from the first one.
According to her, the development left her so shocked that she just stood there for a while trying to absorb the news.
“I was like, ‘No way this happened again, but it did,” Sloan said in a statement sent to the media.
She added that most of her family members could not believe it when she informed them that she had won again, Daily Mail records.
Sloan, who admits that she feels extremely blessed, revealed that she has plans to open her own soul food restaurant with the second win.
