If you’re a lottery player, you’ve probably heard of the saying, “You gotta play to win.” Well, a Canadian teen is proving that saying to be true, winning a staggering $48 million jackpot on her very first try! That’s right, Juliette Lamour from Ontario is now the lucky winner of the biggest lottery jackpot in Canadian history.
According to reports, Juliette, who recently turned 19, purchased a ticket for the Lotto Max draw. When she checked her numbers the day after the draw, she couldn’t believe her eyes. She had matched all seven numbers and won the massive prize. When she was asked how she felt about winning such a large amount of money, she replied, “I still can’t believe it.”
News of her win spread quickly, and the teen quickly became a local celebrity. People in her community were ecstatic for her, congratulating her and wishing her all the best. Juliette stated that she hasn’t thought much about what she’ll do with the money yet, but she did mention that she’d like to buy a new house and go on a trip to Europe.
The Canadian teen’s win has inspired many people to buy lottery tickets, hoping that they too could be the next big winner. But winning the lottery is no guarantee, and players are urged to play responsibly. The odds of winning the Lotto Max jackpot are 1 in 33 million, but for Juliette, those odds didn’t matter. She won big on her first try, and now she’s set for life.
Juliette’s story is a reminder that you never know what can happen when you take a chance. So, the next time you see a lottery ticket for sale, who knows? It could be your lucky day!
