True Stories
One incredible example: Las Vegas-resident Joan Ginther has won the Texas lottery four times since 1993, bringing in more than $20 million in total winnings, as reported by ABC News. The World Records Academy named her the world's luckiest lottery winner in July after Ginther's latest success: $10 million from a scratch ticket.Most people dream of hitting the lottery just once, but Las Vegas resident Joan Ginther hit it an unbelievable four times. According to ABC News, Ginther won the Texas lottery four times over the past 17 years, winning $5.4 million in 1993, $2 million in 2006, and $3 million in 2008. Her biggest score came in 2010: a $50 scratch ticket that was worth $10 million. Lucky or just unfair?
In the U.K., Terry Herbert, an amateur me<x>tal detectorist hunting on a friend's farm last year unearthed 1,600 pieces of 7th century gold and silver pieces, the largest haul of Anglo-Saxon treasure ever found, according to The Times of London. The discovery, made using a second-hand detector he bought for about $4, is worth some $5.1 million, which Herbert will split with the landowner.
While experienced hunters research historic sites where older and more valuable items are more likely to be found, Stuart Auerbach, founder and chief executive of Kellyco me<x>tal Detectors, says often it's "dumb luck."
Auerbach says Kellyco's annual sales have been growing in the double digits for the past seven years. Mike Scott, director of sales at First Texas Products, says year-to-date sales are up more than 30 percent over the same period in 2009.
"This is one of the best years ever, and I think it's because of the economy," says Scott, a recreational hunter himself who once helped a family find more than 1,000 pounds of silver coins on their property. "It's one of those strike-it-rich mentalities. Some people say, 'Maybe I'll find the big one one day.'"
