Bob and his wife affectionately kissing receive award checks. December 24 Christmas Eve last year, in Georgetown, Kentucky, USA, auto worker Bob Anderson Feng's wife was ordered to go out to purchase holiday gifts, by the way, in a convenience store to buy lottery tickets. He wanted to buy 3 par value of $1 lottery ticket, but due to the clerk's mistake, a face value of $3 lottery ticket was printed out for him. Ridiculous as it may sound, this is the highest amount of lottery prize in the history of Kentucky. Anderson has been married for 13 years and currently lives in Georgetown, Kentucky. On December 24 last year, Christmas Eve, Bob and his wife were ordered to go out to Wal-Mart supermarket to purchase holiday gifts. On the way, he bought a lottery ticket at a convenience store. It is reported that Bob has been playing the lottery for at least 12 years. He had originally intended to buy three $1 face value Powerball lottery tickets, but due to the clerk's error, a face value of $3 lottery ticket was printed out instead.
Bob recalls: "I almost forgot about the lottery ticket." On December 27, during the live television broadcast of the lottery results, Bob hastily pulled out the three $1 lottery tickets he had bought and checked the results one by one, only to be disappointed when he found that none of them matched. Suddenly, he remembered a lottery ticket left on the bed or coffee table, so he quickly retrieved it to check. To his pleasant surprise, the computer-selected group of numbers were all correct. This meant that he had suddenly become a $128.6 million grand prize winner! This also marked the highest amount of lottery prize in the history of Kentucky. In order to confirm that he wasn't dreaming, Bob even drank a few bottles of beer. Then, he brought his wife to call the Father of the Bride, holding the Duijiang news published in that day’s newspapers, checking each item one by one. Only then did the other party dare to confirm that he and his wife truly became billionaires!
It is reported that Bob’s winning numbers were 32, 36, 37, 41, 53, and the Powerball number was 30, with a winning probability of only one in 95.2 million. On January 6, surrounded by dozens of friends and relatives, Anderson and his wife went to the Kentucky Lottery Board to receive the award check. It is learned that they can either receive this huge sum of money over 30 years or take a lump sum of $63 million in cash. After discussion, they chose the former. It is understood that Bob, who was not well-off as a young man, never attended university. Now flourishing, his greatest wish is to return to school to study financial professionals. His wife said she most wants the couple to go to Hawaii, and also acquire a new car. Bob said he would consider whether or not to return to work, admitting that he hadn't thought about it yet.
