00:02i want to tell you for our cup of joy this morning about a man named stephen hughes in
00:07what was his last name stephen hughes gin i said it wrong it's hughes gin yeah see i knew you
00:14said
00:14it wrong because me and stephen go back you go back uh so stephen is 56 years old and he
00:21has
00:21been playing the powerball lottery for quite some time um he lives in michigan okay and he recently
00:28won a million dollars oh good for him powerball yeah he's been using the same numbers for the last
00:3530 years now stephen got his numbers from a zoltar fortune telling machine during a trip to las vegas
00:4630 years ago like in the movie big right exactly love it it worked for tom hanks yep it worked
00:54for
00:54stephen so for 30 years he's been consistently using these numbers and it finally paid off to
01:00the tune of one million dollars i would love to know how much he spent and see if he's made
01:06like
01:07see what the well if he if he bought one ticket yeah right so powerball i think is is it
01:13two dollars
01:13two dollars right and is it just it's twice a week twice a week i think it's twice a week
01:18for the past
01:1830 years wow so 52 times two is a 104 a year so 104 times 30 which isn't that much
01:27it's like
01:27three thousand dollars yeah wow he's made out and he made a million dollars right because that's what
01:32i initially i was like but has he spent a million dollars over these past 30 years no not even
01:38close
01:38not even close at all not even close well even if he played every day for 30 years he would
01:43actually
01:44it made quite a bit of money as well because it would only put him at 21 000 right yeah
01:48but they
01:49only do powerball every two years exactly so twice a week and has and i think the tickets have gone
01:54up
01:54like they probably weren't two dollars 30 years ago they're probably only a buck probably a buck yeah
01:59so this guy is banking yes that's a real investment plan when you really think about it way to go
02:04stephen way to go stephen he played the odds yeah yeah zoltar uh-oh
