The Dhaka Times Desk He did not know that he won such a huge amount of money in the lottery. When he found out, a person lost himself after getting 24 million dollars in the lottery!
He has been buying lotteries for 50 years to make his fortune. He is tired of matching the numbers. That's why he never got time to compare ticket numbers. This person from New Jersey, USA, Jimmy Smith always thought, if there is some time, I will match all the tickets. This 68-year-old retired security guard got 24 million dollars in the lottery! Even the ticket was found in the pocket of his old shirt!
Suddenly one day Jimmy saw the news on TV that no one came to collect the first prize of the lottery ticket with Omuk number. Only 2 more days left for the deadline.
Not too late, Jimmy sat down with the old ticket stub, shaking off the dust and cobwebs. The desired ticket came out of an old shirt pocket.
Jimmy couldn't believe it when he saw that the ticket numbers matched. Jimmy looked out the window of the dusty room and breathed in the fresh air. He then headed to the New York Lottery's customer service department. Thus he got 24 million dollars of the lottery!
