Today, let's talk about becoming a wealthy lady! Because I really want to be one, just like the protagonist we're discussing today, who suddenly became a millionaire overnight! It happened when she casually bought a lottery ticket while shopping and... she became a wealthy lady. What does it feel like to become an instant millionaire?

This stroke of luck happened to Perla Gomez, a college student in Virginia, USA. One day, she spent $30 to buy a lottery ticket at a convenience store and unbelievably hit the jackpot, winning $1 million! In an instant, she transformed from a college student to a millionaire. It makes me think that she must have done something really good in her past life to have such incredible luck.

When Perla claimed her prize, she mentioned that she was shopping at a local 7-Eleven in Virginia Beach when she spent $30 on a scratch-off ticket. She never expected to win the biggest prize, and her uncle and friends were with her at the time. Perla had the option to receive the $1 million prize in 30 annual payments or choose a lump sum payment. She decided to take the lump sum after taxes, which amounted to a total of $640,205. According to the Virginia Lottery, the chances of winning the top prize are just 10,060,800 to 1.

When I was a child, I used to think that scratch-off tickets were a scam, and there was no way there could be a big prize inside. Every time I saw a stack of scratch-off tickets, none of them seemed to be winners. But now I believe it! Big prizes do exist, but the odds are incredibly slim. It's probably better and more stable to work hard and earn money through your own efforts, right?

Unfortunately, I've bought so many without ever hitting the jackpot.

Everything has its limits. People who are willing to risk their entire fortune to win generally end up in dire situations. It's usually those who play for small change or have a sudden dream who often win. So, after all these years, the only thing that separates me from being a billionaire is just a dream.

How do we really know if we're lucky? Maybe someone needs to tell us that.
