Man Goes Out for Lunch, Comes Home with $425 Million

B. Raymond Buxton was queuing for a Sub for lunch and like a lot of people looked around while waiting. He saw lottery tickets were available and bought one for $2. His life got very interesting not long after because his numbers came up. All of them, giving him $425 million, a 21,249,999,900% return on his investment.

Whilst he’s worked to keep as much of himself private as possible, he intends to put a lot of this money into a foundation for child health, hunger, and education. If he’s able to make this work then countless children could get a great start in life because of him, a start they’d never get otherwise.

We should warn you though that a particular brand of sandwiches doesn’t guarantee winning hundreds of millions. As Buxton’s t-shirt said ‘Luck of the Jedi I have’.
