I took home £500k National Lottery jackpot aged 80 but I KNOW it won’t be my last big win… I’m eyeing up a private jet
A GREAT-GRAN who took home a £500,000 National Lottery jackpot has said she is confident she will win again.
Sheila Garrett, 83, from Kent, is eyeing up a private jet and Florida penthouse when she cashes in her next big cheque.
She told the Mirror: “I truly believe I have one more big National Lottery win to come, and this time it’s going to be a whopper.
“Forget the first class travel – I’ll get myself a private jet.”
Sheila has just bought her dream penthouse apartment, which she plans to spend £60,000 revamping.
She won’t fill it with pictures of her family though, choosing instead to have her memories rolling across the screen of a top of the range TV.
The former US-based casino tour guide, who won the jackpot three years ago, added: “I have always loved the finer things in life.
“I love seeing the look on visitors’ faces when they first come round. My home is certainly not your average great-granny’s.”
Another lottery winner has been using his riches on a brand new car collection.
Just over five months ago, Kursat Yildirim, 42, won more than £8million with his lucky ticket and quickly upgraded his motors.
And incredible lottery secrets were revealed – including winners’ chances of a new romance and who was most likely to get a divorce.
