UK Woman Wins Lottery: ₹10 lakh Monthly Payout for 30 Years
A fortunate lady from Dorking, England, has had her life transformed by a fortuitous lottery win in the Set For Life game. Doris Stanbridge, aged 70, managed to match all the winning numbers—2, 11, 17, 30, 38, along with the crucial Life Ball number 3.
on the memorable day of August 3. What makes her win even more remarkable is that she is now set to receive a monthly sum of £10,000, which translates to approximately ₹10.37 lakh in Indian rupees, for an entire 30 years. This life-altering stroke of luck has given her a newfound lease on life and a renewed ambition to reach the century mark.
The intriguing story begins when Stanbridge is at home, in the company of her three daughters. While going about her daily routine, she noticed some money spiders in her house and garden, prompting her to purchase a Set For Life lottery ticket through the National Lottery's app, as reported by the National Lottery. For those unfamiliar, money spiders are a type of spider commonly found in the United Kingdom.
Doris Stanbridge recollects the moment she discovered her astonishing win, saying, “We had just celebrated my 70th birthday, so it had been a busy time for us. I received an email from The National Lottery and decided to log onto the app, half-expecting to see a £10 prize.
But to my astonishment, the message read, ‘Congratulations, you’ve won £10,000 a month for 30 years.' I turned to Keith [Doris’ husband] and exclaimed, ‘Can you believe this? Am I reading it correctly? It can't be true!'” Her disbelief was palpable, but the truth of her extraordinary luck was undeniable.
Unable to contain her excitement, Stanbridge sought a second opinion from her son-in-law and celebrated her life-changing win with a bottle of Champagne. With their newfound fortune, the couple decided to treat themselves to a new bed and an air fryer, providing them with some well-deserved comforts. They also seized the opportunity to enjoy a delightful vacation in Cornwall with their extended family.
Looking ahead, the Stanbridges have grand plans for their windfall. They aim to refurbish the very house they've called home for an impressive 50 years, adding a touch of luxury to their cherished residence. Furthermore, they plan to offer their family the experience of a lifetime with an overseas vacation.
Doris Stanbridge is particularly thrilled about the prospect of taking her grandson on his first airplane journey. Her dreams extend to purchasing a villa in the countryside, complete with a refreshing pool and endless sunshine. It's evident that this stroke of luck has not only transformed her life but has also sparked a world of new possibilities and adventures for her and her family.
