Brent Young, a California Lottery player, asked a store clerk to pick out a scratch-off ticket for him and ended up winning $10 million. Young began removing the scratch-offs when he realized that one of the boxes contained the $10 million jackpot.

Young told the California Lottery: “When I looked at all those zeroes, I said, ‘No way, this doesn’t happen to people like me.'” The new millionaire claimed he chose that gas station because his usual stop was closed.

Brent Young claimed that after filling up with gas at the Prince Food & Gas station, he purchased a Scratchers ticket when it came time to pay. But he was still determining which one to choose, so he asked the clerk to help him.

“I thought, pick anyone; I didn’t care,” Young recalled. He claimed the employee chose the California 200X game by reaching across the desk.

“I was forced to visit Prince’s. My usual stop was closed. All of this would not have happened if it had been open, according to Young. Young decided on a lump sum payment of $5.8 million. $50,000 will be given to Prince Food & Licor to the sale of the winning ticket.

It’s stupid. The cashier has the option to select a different game among them. But he did not. He got a winner,” Young commented. The Californian man surely remembers the moment he entrusted his fate to the store clerk, resulting in an outcome that will forever change the course of his life as he received his reward of $ 10 million.

This story is an important reminder that luck can reward the brave and the spontaneous in times we can never fully predict, for lottery players and dreamers alike.
