California’s SACRAMENTO (TND) — Six years ago, a California lady who was homeless is now wealthy.

According to lottery officials, Lucia Forseth picked up her 2023 Scratchers ticket while getting her oil changed at a Walmart.

“I just purchased one ticket. I closed my eyes and picked that one, and it won!” stated Forseth. “At first I thought I’d won a free ticket, but when I checked it said I won $5 million,” the winner exclaimed.

Forseth claimed that the 2023 ticket’s profound symbolism was why she chose to purchase it.

I was without a home six years ago. I’m getting married, finishing my associate’s degree, and winning $5 million this year,” Forseth said. You never consider your chances of winning. It happens at random. Just six years ago, I was a homeless person and I never thought it would happen to me.
She stated that she intended to invest the remainder of her profits and buy a home.

According to lottery organizers, hearing about her success demonstrates the beneficial effects that games may have on winners and schools.
