After playing the same lottery numbers for a period more than two years, a Dearborn man, Hani Haidar Ahmad, recently won $1 million from a Mega Millions drawing. He has been using 16, 39, 47, 53, and 71 as his lucky numbers. His ticket, however, managed to match five white balls in Mega Millions 4th July drawing.

A clerk told Hani that someone had bought a $1 million winner when he went to the Exxon station to buy the tickets for the upcoming lotteries. “I remember telling him: ‘Well I am sure it was not me.’ Then I asked him for a printout of the winning numbers so I could check my ticket when I got home. When I checked the ticket, I screamed. It was unbelievable,” the 55-year-old said.

The Dearborn man wants to invest a considerable portion of his winnings to a new business and save the rest amount. “Money is not everything, having your health is very important, but winning this kind of money is definitely life changing,” Haidar-Ahmad told the Michigan Lottery.
