How the winning tickets get lost…

It's hard to imagine a story where people lose or out neglect throw the lottery ticket away. The ticket that in the end turns out to be a winning one, but nonetheless such cases happen. Now, how this can happen? It sometimes happens due to negligence or carelessness, or because of some distraction.

Each player will check his ticket after the end of the draw. This is obvious, because lotteries play out huge Jackpots and this win can change the life of any person in an instant, make it bright and rich, eliminate a lot of financial problems

And still there are people who lose their tickets or just forget to check their numbers.

One such case occurred in New Zealand. The young man won a lot of money, couple of dozens of millions, when not knowing that he actually threw it out. It is a real story!

A day before, he went to a hairdressing salon for a haircut. He found that the door of hairdresser's was closed, so he went home and on the way bought a lottery ticket for the money that he planned to spend for his haircut. He usually did not play the lottery, but this time his inner voice prompted him to buy a ticket. After the draw, the hero of our story checked the ticket and found that he had not guessed any number, so naturally he threw his ticket in the bin.

A few days later, all the news channels and the press were looking for the winner, the amount was 27 million. The media reported that the winner still did not claim the prize and the organizers are looking for the lucky guy and also once again announced the winning combination of numbers. Our hero understood that the winning numbers seemed completely different than those when he checked them. It turned out that he checked the results of another draw, the older one. He quickly started to look where he had thrown his ticket. Dug up the whole house and a miracle! In the rubbish bin, he found a winning ticket.

Yes, he was the very winner the whole country was looking for. He really was the winner!

If you have already decided and bought a lottery ticket, then check it with care and do not throw it ahead of time. Who knows, you can be lucky, like this New Zealander, who nearly lost his fairly won millions.
