Kenneth Smith who is a resident of Greensboro North Carolina thanked a close friend of his who gave advice to play a scratch game at the Calabash Food and Calabash where he paid money to buy a $100 Million Mega Scratch Off ticket that revealed his prize of $100,000 dollars.
What made this story amazing is Kenneth was celebrating his second wedding anniversary to his wife who went to a beach with his friends and family at a beach in Calabash.
The friend of Kenneth who advised him to play the winning lottery ticket received his reward by taking him and his relatives by buying them breakfast the next morning.
Kenneth who is employed in the real estate industry after he cashed in his winning received after taxes won $71, 016.
Kenneth intends to make some home improvements and build a home for his nine week old Dachshund Stella.
It remains to be seen if Kenneth will stay working in his real estate business after winning a huge lottery ticket on the second anniversary of his wedding last week.
What are the odds that someone would win a huge lottery prize on their wedding anniversary?

I have heard the horror stories on television shows that lottery winner go broke making bad money decisions that include relatives stealing their money.

@Deepizzaguy I’ve heard that too. That’s why I say pay all the relatives off and tell them to shut up.

The odds of any couple winning a huge lottery prize on a wedding anniversary are rare.

The couple that won the huge lottery prize will have a lot of money to keep them stress free of having enough money to having to not able to pay their bills for a long time.

That is true since the state governments will claim to use the taxpayer money to rebuild schools.
