Retired Player Wins 1 Million Euros with Euromillions Subscription in France

The day is already well underway, this Friday, March 17, when this player goes shopping at the Intermarché store in Saint-Thibault-des-Vignes in Seine-et-Marne. Recently, the player, just retired, got into the habit of validating his new Euromillions subscription which he takes for a period of 5 full weeks.. He was then far from imagining that his new fad would bring him 1 million euros a few weeks later when he checked his gambling receipt. It was in the hope of one day improving his retirement pension that he started to play. “The others win, why not me!”, He declared with conviction during his winning presentation at the premises of the FDJ.

If none of the winning numbers drawn on the evening of the Euromillions draw on March 17 matched with his own (37 5 26 15 49 and the stars 8 and 11), his My Million code, on the other hand, hit the mark! His code QJ 547 2111, which he kept for the 5 weeks of the draw, was drawn, winning him the sum of 1 million euros.

“What emotion and relief! Our retirement is financially secure”: these are the words that the winner and his wife expressed their joy when they came to Paris. From Seine-et-Marne to the capital, their first madness as a new millionaire may have been to afford the trip by taxi. For the future, they also plan to make trips to enjoy their retirement.
