ASHLEY: I got a $5 ticket, actually. I won $20 on it.
It's like, oh, I'll pocket $10 of it - invest the other $10 of it, you know.
Keep playing. So, the cashier
was like, "Oh try for a bigger ticket." So I tried for a $10
ticket and ended up winning $300.
He was like, "Come on. Go for $20! Go for $20!"
People, this is the new, this is the new roll of them and people have lost so this is bound to at least be a winner. You'll get your money back.
Got to, like, scratch the first line,
and went to scratch the second line and got to the third line, my favorite number is actually 16,
and that was the number right before the winning number.
And I always scratch all of it. I don't scratch the winning
until I scratch the whole ticket.
And, um. I don't know. I went back and I thought it was $40.
And then I was like, it's kinda of far over and then saw $40K and thought - $40,000, oh my gosh!
Well then under it, it said, every, for 25 years. And I just
hyperventalated, basically. (laughs)
I called my mom and she's like, "No way."
I said, "I think I just won a million dollars." She's like, "Ashely, stop it!" You know. She didn't believe me.
She's like, "Just stop messing with me." And I was like, "No. Really." And my voice was trembling.
And she's like, well, we just got iPods for Christmas, and she's like "Facetime us, show us.
I wanna see." Cause she plays them quite frequently. And I showed it to her, "Oh my gosh. I can't believe that."
And I called a friend who lives across the river
and told him. He was like, "No way. I don't believe you. I'm like right around the corner, I'm stopping by.
I gotta see this for myself." I showed him. He's like, "Oh wow! You,
you are so lucky."
I have a few people in my family who are very smart with things that have called me
and been like, "You know,
you gotta save some of that, you know. Gotta put some of it away."
And I talked to my uncle about it. He's like, "Only spend the interest. Don't ever touch the principal."
Getting all technical with me.
