Their perseverance was rewarded. In Canada, three friends who have been playing the lottery together for seventeen years have finally hit the jackpot! They won a whopping $50 million in Lotto 6/49, one of three national lottery games. “I’m happy that the three of us can share this (…). I don’t know what I would have done with $50 million,” one of the lucky winners humorously confided to Calgary Herald.
The three friends and former colleagues learned the good news on December 11. It was Carmen who noticed it first. After waking up early and making her coffee, she, as usual, checked her lottery tickets. She then saw a message informing her of a $50 million win. She immediately informed her husband who replied: “I’m retiring!” »

They are going on vacation together
Stunned, she was quick to send a message to her two acolytes, even though it was very early. If his friend Catherine was awake, Gary was sleeping soundly. “Who would wake me up at 6:30 in the morning? So I didn’t respond,” he said Wednesday during a press conference. Then the trio quickly rejoiced at having each won 16.6 million Canadian dollars, or approximately 11.5 million euros.
Now a multi-millionaire, Carmen flew to Chile to visit her family. Catherine and her husband retired and Gary rushed to the Ford dealership to buy a new car. The three friends also plan to go on vacation together to celebrate their victory. And they have no plans to stop playing the lottery regularly together.
