A Florida Lottery winner apparently has his pregnant dog to thank for a stroke of good fortune that has now made him well over a million dollars.
Although there are more than enough stories out there to suggest a person has to move carefully after they win the lottery, it's still obviously a moment that so many people dream about.
And while we can generally expect people to wipe away their financial troubles and start enjoying the high life when they get this lucky, it's also fascinating to hear about those who would rather put the money towards a purpose greater than themselves.
But we can often find that it's just as interesting to hear about how someone ended up winning their big payout because more of those stories than you might expect involve situations that are just as improbable as the win itself.
