Karma Wins!


Karma recently struck in the Phillipines where a 60 year-old man won a $17 million lottery prize after a woman cut in front of him. The unidentified man allowed the woman to purchase her items from a convenience store before he bought a lottery ticket and played the lucky pick numbers. He beat odds of 1-in-29 million to win the largest jackpot in the country's history. Had the line jumper not pushed her way ahead of the man, and played the lottery, then she would have won the prize.
