Using his second lottery ticket of the year, a Michigan man won a $6 million reward.

The 32-year-old guy from Wayne County informed Michigan Lottery officials that he only plays the lottery occasionally, thus the 500X Money Maker ticket he purchased from the 7-Eleven location on South Groesbeck Highway in Clinton Township was only his second purchase since the year 2024 began.

“I play lottery games every once in a while, and this 500X Money Maker ticket was only the second ticket I have purchased so far this year,” the player stated. “I went into the store to purchase a few things and saw the 500X Money Maker game, so I asked the clerk what the ticket number was on the next ticket. When she said 14, I told her I’d take it because 14 is my wife and I’s lucky number.”

The man claimed to have been taken aback by what he had won.

“I scratched the ticket off and, when I saw I won $6 million, I started hyperventilating! I had to take the day off work because I was in a state of shock. I texted my wife and said: ‘Lucky number 14.’ She jokingly replied: ‘What do you mean? Are we millionaires?’ As soon as I got home, I told her the big news,” he stated.

The winner declared that he will support his family, launch a business, and invest his winnings.
