NOTE: Okay, while not technically my normal news finding I had to blog this. After all with 3 million in wins - I could put all foreclosure actions away for my friends and family. Even giving 1/2 away to taxes you would have 1.5 million left to invest and give away. OR move to Belize.
"'But it's a pretty amazing coincidence,' he said. 'We've had players win big multiple prizes before, but this is the first person to ever win a second million-dollar prize in the history of the Missouri Lottery.'
Pullen bought the most recent winning ticket on Sept. 17 at Miller's Quick Shop in Bonne Terre, a community in the Old Lead Belt region of eastern Missouri, about 60 miles southwest of St. Louis. He opted to take the cash payment instead of the annuity for both wins. He received $700,000 for the June winner and will get about $1.3 million for the September winner - both before taxes.
Pullen recalled a dream six years ago in which he won a lot of money. Even after the $1 million win in June, he didn't feel like the dream was complete.
He does now.
'All the numbers I dreamed about, and all my lucky numbers, were on the card,' Pullen said."
