How would you really react if you discovered that you had won the 955 million dollars in the lotto?
It is the probably very few who can make a qualified bid on, but Frances and Patrick Connelly from Moira in northern Ireland know their answer.
When they recently discovered that they were the winners of the incredibly high sum of money, they sat a little in silence. Struggled to try to understand it. So they made a cup of tea, gave each other a hug and wrote a list of the people, they would give the money to. And so they went to bed.
It writes the Belfast Telegraph, who have spoken with the two new millionaires, who have chosen to stand up with name and images.
the List ended up to consist of 50 persons, all of whom will have part of their assets. But none of them have yet been told to the face to get some extra zeros on the example.
The 115 million british pounds, as the pair won the new year’s day, the fourth-largest prize in the Uk lotto history.
– We let the us rarely get carried away – I raised perhaps my voice a bit, just when we found out about it – but we celebrated it with a cup of tea and a hug, says 52-year-old Frances Connolly to Belfast Telegraph.
– here is a large sum of money, and we would like to have a big impact on other people, as we know and love, but also on our own future. This win gives us the opportunity to really make a difference for our family and friends.
Patrick Connolly at 54 years of age report that they had difficulty falling asleep that night.
– We really didn’t know what we should do, or how we should respond, and we didn’t sleep a second the night. We called to Camelot (the uk’s response to the Danish Game, red) at eight o’clock in the morning to confirm the win. Then it began to dawn on us that it was true, even though we probably still had not quite grasped it, says Patrick Connolly.
make friends with the Danish couple, who got a wild christmas surprise: – My husband thought his father was dead, ” says the wife.
