She had been playing regularly for about ten years. And luck finally knocked on his door. A young forty-something from Sarthe won the sum of 102,242,065 euros, reports the Française des jeux in a press release on Thursday.
This incredible prize, which makes her the ninth biggest FDJ winner (and the first in the Pays-de-la-Loire), has just been given to her, a month after finding the right numbers: 7, 23, 34, 42, 48, stars 1 and 3.
“I compared the numbers fifty times”
For each draw, this player selects her lucky numbers and fills in a second grid completely randomly. This time, surprise, it’s the jackpot! “I compared the numbers about 50 times throughout the day and the wonderful news was confirmed,” says her husband.
The big winner now wants to quit her job and plans to start her own family business. Real estate projects as well as the purchase of a new car are also planned. “Thanks to this chance, we have above all saved time, it is the greatest of luxuries”, confided the couple to the FDJ.
