Lots of Advice for $48m Lotto 6/49 Winner

Sometimes the advice your elders give you really is worth listening to. Teenager Juliette Lamour from Northern Ontario in Canada was advised by her grandfather to buy a lottery ticket. It led to a $48 million Lotto 6/49 Gold Ball jackpot in the January 7 draw.

Juliette had just turned 18 and had never bought a lottery ticket before. The teenager needed advice from her father regarding which lottery to play. He suggested the Lotto 6/49 Gold Ball draw, never guessing it’d make her the youngest jackpot winner in Lotto 6/49 history.

The university student works at a pharmacy and had forgotten about her Lotto 6/49 purchase until a colleague saw there’d been a local jackpot win. He checked her ticket on his phone and it came up as ‘Big Winner.”

“I didn’t understand what was going on at first. I couldn’t process this news. We kind of made a scene in the store that day,” said the Lotto 6/49 jackpot winner. The tears began to flow and the teenager was barely understandable when telling her parents her amazing news.

Her mother wanted her to stay at work but that’s one piece of advice that didn’t get followed as her parents came to collect her.

Career comes first.

Juliette may be a multi-millionaire but still plans to go to medical school. Once that’s done a practice will be opened in Northern Ontario.

More advice will come from her father. That’s good though seeing that he works as a financial planner. The teenager will invest some of her winnings but also wants to go travelling.

No beach for Juliette

Speaking about that, she said: “I am not a ‘sit on the beach’ type of person. I want to experience different countries, study their history and culture, try their food, and listen to their language.”

Yet more advice has come from a close friend who told her that “money doesn’t define you, it’s the work you do that will define you.” With all this advice, it looks as  if her Lotto 6/49 win will be put to great use.
