I won about $25,000 in a competition I entered. I was ecstatic.

About £350 playing roulette. One of the waitresses caught my eye. That was 48 years ago. We now have 3 grown-up sons and are very happy together. A winner all the way!

Doctor Who
I was hit $50,000 on a scratchy ticket. Long story. I was actually very "in" with the JW's at the time. Had to move back in with my parents because one of them became seriously ill an they were having problems with caring for their needs. I got the ticket from work as an "end of the year" bonus. My boss at the time would put the tickets in the paycheck envelops. He knew I didn't celebrate Christmas so he would always make sure not to put anything Christmasy on it, lol. But anyways, it took me like 2 months to look at it because, you know demons and stuff. My father who wasn't as witness at the time found it and scratched it. He started to wake everyone up at midnight when he did it because it was a winner. My mom and I discussed for something like 2 hours on what I was going to do with that ticket. Ended up having my dad cash it in so as to not cause waves in the congregation and I gave them half. Looking back, let's all review this very carefully.......It's a cult folks....

I’ve won two all inclusive trips - both were so much fun.
I have a side business consulting and had an event I had to work at a resort/casino for a weekend. The travel was paid for as part of the contract and I got paid my consulting fee, but I won $2500 too so it was a profitable weekend.
Another time I won two slot jackpots in an hour one for $750 and one for $500.
I won a $1k prize at work. A $1200 slot jackpot at the Vegas airport.More concert tickets than I can count. One year I won tickets to every concert at a particular venue for the whole year.
Lots of other things - my friends tease me about having a “lucky life”.
I get to a casino a couple times a year and look forward to the fun.

$500 on a MegaMillions or Powerball. I was ecstatic. My first trip to a casino (Niagara Falls, CA) I walked in and pulled a slot machine. $25. The very next one? $50. I had $25 in tokens to use, so I kept my winnings separate and therefore came out ahead.

I just got around to checking my MegaMillions tickets. Turns out I won $1.05 billion! Finally, I can get a new lawn mower.
Keep in mind, everything you read on the internet is true...

How did it change her? I am always curious about instant riches and what it brings with it..
