Lottery players may already know what they would buy themselves if they landed $1 million playing their favourite draw, but one fan has put his family’s happiness before his own after striking lucky.
The lotto player from San Jose in the US has claimed he is going to use his enormous windfall to buy his mum a new house.
Speaking to NBC Bay Area, the man – who wishes only to be identified as Juan T – admitted he is an “avid” fan of playing his favourite draws and on the day he bought his ticket and checked the numbers, he knew immediately he was a winner.
The fortunate lotto enthusiast took home $1 million and admitted when it dawned on him that he had landed a life-changing sum of money, he went straight home to tell his mother the good news.
When asked about what his priority purchases will be, Juan T stated his mother’s new house is going to be one of the most important things he buys with the money.
However, he had not put his own dreams entirely on the backburner, admitting that he might treat himself to a new Corvette.
Newsreader Jamie Owen told BBC Wales Online recently that family should come first when it comes to allocating what to spend a lottery win on and said the first thing he would buy is a big lunch for his nearest and dearest so they could decide together how to splash the cash.

The Louisiana Lottery is celebrating 20 excitement-packed years of making hundreds of millionaires – and to mark the milestone anniversary, it is offering a raft of promotions and games to its fans.
It seems the state lotto continues to be popular, with 2011 proving to be its second-best year, selling $385 million worth of tickets.
Rose Hudson, lottery president, claims the trust players have in the game is why it is so successful and stated that the Louisiana Lottery was the first in the USA to be given verification of quality assurance procedures meeting industry best practices.
“It’s a wonderful time to look back on how much the Louisiana Lottery has contributed to our state monetarily and culturally – as well as thank those business partners, employees and Louisianans who helped make it happen,” she noted.
In celebration of its 20th anniversary, the Louisiana Lottery launched a Facebook campaign to give players the chance to win a Mardi Grad parade ride by sharing their own customs for the festival on the social media site, while in February it brought back its popular Millionaire Bonus Raffle to be in with a chance of winning $1 million.
Fans were given the chance to design the official anniversary T-shirt in spring and in September a series of special scratch-off games were launched.
Louisiana Lottery fans can check their lotto numbers at theLotter – and players may already be excited for tonight’s (November 16th) rollover draw.

In this second edition in our new series of understanding lotto terms, we want to help lottery fans boost their game by understanding what it means to choose the multiplier option.
Many lotto fans may have spotted the Megaplier when they play USA Mega Millions - this is what is known in the lottery world as a multiplier.
It is simply a way of multiplying a non-jackpot lottery prize for an additional charge.
Non-jackpot prizes are multiplied by the Megaplier number – 2, 3 or 4 – which means lotto fans can get a lot more bang for their buck if their lucky numbers come through.
In the USA Mega Millions draw, the match 5 prize – which is always $250,000 – is always multiplies by Megaplier number 4, instantly making the ticketholder a millionaire.
USA Powerball works in a similar play with its own Power Play option, which boosts a player’s non-jackpot winnings by multiplying it with the Power Play ball and entitles match 5 prize-winners to a $1 million payout, just by ticking a box.
The USA Oregon Megabucks also has a multiplier entitled the Kicker, which entitles any non-jackpot prize won in the game to be multiplied by four.
There’s no time like the present for lottery enthusiasts to give these optional extras a go to boost their winnings, with the next USA Powerball and Oregon Megabucks draws taking place today (November 16th) and the next USA Mega Millions game scheduled for Friday (November 18th).

If a lottery fan finds out their numbers have been called in their favourite draw then it might be their first reaction to ring everybody they know in a frenzy – but one expert recommends taking a more Zen approach to acclimatising to a wealthy payout.
Life coach with Rasaru.com Rasheed Ogunlaru suggests lottery fans take a step back and adjust their minds to what impact this lotto jackpot will have on their lives and those of their nearest and dearest
“My tip would be to actually pause and give yourself some time before calling anybody – just because you can settle yourself,” he said.
And as for calling everybody in the phone book to share the good news, the life guru added that it was best to think twice about letting all and sundry know straight away and consider who they feel comfortable sharing their good news with in the first instance.
Perhaps the calm and collected approach could have benefited one lottery winner from South Carolina.
Last month the anonymous Spartanburg lotto fan told The State that he “freaked out” when he realised he was a rich man.

The Polish Lotto top prize has reset to PLN 2 million after its record-smashing jackpot of PLN 50 million was won by multiple lottery players on Tuesday last week (September 27th).
As a result of the shared payout, the lucky lottery fans scooped around PLN 28 million apiece thanks to their good fortune at picking the same numbers drawn in the nail-biting game that made history for the European country.
The jackpot climbed to such astronomic heights after a succession of rollovers beginning on September 3rd – and with three Polish Lotto draws taking place every week that amounts to a lot of cash building up to entice eager lottery players.
According to the Warsaw Business Journal, sales of Polish Lotto tickets increased dramatically during this recent rollover period.
And even though it is likely the winning lotto fans had to share the prize, their divided fortunes still break records, as the previous biggest ever winner of the game took home PLN 24.6 million on April 28th 2010.

A very lucky lotto fan from France is said to have scooped the second-largest ever EuroMillions jackpot after the draw on Tuesday (September 13th).
The fortunate Frenchman or woman is now €162.2 million richer, but so far he or she has not claimed the life-changing prize from the Francaise des Jeux lottery organisation.
Reports are suggesting the now hugely wealthy lottery enthusiast is from the famous brandy-producing region of Calvados.
To put their enormous windfall in perspective, the EuroMillions jackpot could buy the anonymous winner some 13.5 million bottles of their homeland’s own Calvados apple spirit with change to spare – but given the circumstances, something from the Champagne province may be a more appropriate beverage to splash out on.
So now, the EuroMillions lottery jackpot starts again at €15 million, but this prize is certainly not one to be sniffed at.
Lottery fans can enter in time for tomorrow’s (September 16th) draw at theLotter to be in with a chance of getting their hands on this fantastic prize.

A couple from Maryland are now $108 million richer thanks to winning big playing USA Powerball – and they may yet decide to go public with their happy news.
According to a lotto spokesperson speaking to the Baltimore Sun, the Abingdon pair stepped forward to collect their prize yesterday (September 13th 2011).
The lottery official revealed the lucky winners have not decided whether they want to be identified after receiving their windfall, which was won on September 7th.
Lottery communications director Carole Evrett said: “We are hoping to get an answer soon and are, of course, hoping they agree to publicity.”
And Ms Evrett may be especially keen that the couple agree to be identified because they are in fact the first ever USA Powerball winners for the state of Maryland.
Lotto fans who fancy a USA Powerball jackpot for themselves can play today at theLotter as the top prize is estimated to be $25 million – a life-changing sum of money.

Fans of big rollover games such as Italian SuperEnalotto may want to take some tips from an expert if they want to increase their chances of having a massive lottery jackpot win all to themselves.
Independent lotto expert The Lottery Guy has recommended people use numbers above 31 when guessing what balls are going to be drawn, because those between 1 and 31 are very popular with people who go for birthdays and other memorable dates when buying a lottery ticket.
He also advised doing some research and finding out the least popular numbers that people pick and choosing them, because this too means sharing a prize is less likely.
“In particular, avoid the lottery numbers from the TV series Lost,” the expert added.
The next Italian SuperEnalotto draw will take place tomorrow (September 3rd) after a run of rollovers.
Now the jackpot has reached €58.3 million – which is a life-changing sum of money for any lottery fan.

Lottery fans who win a huge jackpot playing their favourite game have been advised to take it easy when it comes to spending their newly-acquired wealth because splashing the cash so could be so far removed from their ordinary lives that they become unhappy.
Speaking to the Daily Telegraph, Patricia Mock, director of Deloitte, said that her experience of dealing with people who have scooped life-changing lottery prizes is that it is a better option to take things slowly.
“Think about a diversified investment strategy so you’re not putting all your eggs in one basket – what do you really want to invest in,” she commented.
Ms Mock suggested seeing a financial adviser and making a will at an early stage.
Some may enjoy their lottery winnings more if they divide the prize between their loved ones.
Writing for MSN Money, Budgets are Sexy’s J Money said that when it comes to sharing the wealth with family it is a no-brainer and if he did not trust them to spend it wisely themselves he would still buy them a house or a car.

A lottery fan from Rhode Island has claimed $10,000 in winnings thanks to a lucky USA Powerball Ticket after the devastation of Hurricane Irene hit her home.
According to Go Local Prov, the lotto player – who has opted to remain nameless – was off work on the morning she collected her payout, because the meteorological devastation cut the power at the place of work, resulting in her having the day off.
The lucky lottery fan revealed she and her husband would share the prize and enjoy a little spending money but the rest would go into a bank account.
Her ticket for the August 24th draw matched four lottery numbers and the PowerBall number and on that day there was no jackpot winner either, seeing the top prize roll over.

Playing the Italian SuperEnalotto after a big rollover win may increase a lottery fan’s chances of winning, as one enthusiast has claimed persevering on quiet nights can pay dividends.
Writing for Gulf News, lotto lover Kevin Martin said that although the first game after a massive win is less exciting due to the jackpot being smaller, it means fewer people will be playing.
He explained that the odds are greater on rollover nights because “every Australian and his dog would be buying multiple tickets”, while more modest top lottery prizes would mean a person’s chance with their favourite numbers is marginally greater.

Hearing that the next big lottery draw is a rollover can do much to generate excitement and spur people on to choosing their favourite numbers in the hopes of taking home a juicy cash prize.
So for lotto fans who love the thrill of entering a draw after another week of no wins, the Italian SuperEnalotto could be perfect – as the game is famous for producing the largest ever European lottery winner, thanks to its rollover jackpot.
On August 22nd 2009, a single ticket holder from Bagnone in Tuscany claimed their €147.8 million prize and celebrated with neighbours after having been the first person in seven months to pick the six winning lottery numbers correctly.
Fans of the Italian draw will already know why the chances of rollovers are so high – because with 90 balls in play, there is a greater likelihood of prizes rolling over into the next game, racking up the value of the top payout regularly.
Tomorrow’s (June 30th’s) Italian SuperEnalotto jackpot is an estimated €36.7 million and tickets are available at theLotter.
Fancy being a rollover winner? Play at theLotter!

In our new blog series we are giving weekly tips and hints on how to understand and get the most out of your lottery games. We get emails every day on a variety of questions ranging from the elementary like this one ‘What is the Lottery Bonus Ball” through to asking for our recommendations on which is the best USA state lottery to play. Obviously questions like the latter we’re unable to answer for obvious legal reasons, though the former we are happy to help.
so… WHAT IS THE LOTTERY BONUS BALL:
In almost every lottery game available six numbers are chosen by the entrant for each draw, 6 balls are then drawn PLUS one or more extra bonus balls. In these lotteries your entry consists only of the basic numbers, 6 in this example, and does not include a special guess for the bonus numbers.
If you manage to guess all the basic numbers correctly, regardless of the bonus ball(s), you win the jackpot simple as that. The bonus balls are used to determine lower prize groups, according to the different prize categories shown in each of the lotteries in their Lottery Info page accessible through one of the 3 easy ways to choose your specific information at Lottery Info section at the site.
