Good for him. He should get a lawyer and remind people that a million is the new 100,000 now.

One wonders how much he would have had over 2 decades had he put the same money in a outperforming stock fund, like Vanguard.

Tran plans to pay off his house and surround it with razor wire, punji stakes, and tiger pits ...
Well ... he should, anyway.

Doesn’t matter that he played the same numbers or not - fact is, there are probably millions of other people playing the lottery for the 18 years that have and will only lose.

Call the Social Security Office and ask them.

Lottery is a tax on stupidity.
And it’s completely voluntary.............

The Lottery.
Another tax on the poor & middle class that our lousy/crooked politicians supposedly love.

To me this begs the Paul Harvey "Rest of the Story" reporting.
I am happy for the fellow but I more marvel at his amazing persistent. I would like to know how many times and for what amount had he won over those 18 years.

He probably put in 2MM. He’s just getting it back.

Isn’t ANY completely voluntary tax a tax on stupidity?

I have a university frat buddy who was a math major and is now working at Microsoft. He studies permutations and statistics so he did calculating the numbers and crunched. Before graduating (and boozing), he gave us an advice to play the same numbers for (I think he said 12 years) “religiously without skipping” and we’ll hit the jackpot.
Im not sure I believed him due to the booze but he has 5 houses and Im not sure MS pays him that well...
