Stu MacDonald of Bend buys Oregon Lottery tickets every week, and every week, his wife Claudia tells him to "get the winning ticket."
She forgot to tell him on September 7, the Oregon Lottery said. But he ended up buying a winning ticket worth $A6.7million."I am a very lucky guy," he said in a statement. "I survived cancer twice and here I am. This is amazing." After taxes, he took home about $A2.18 million. A cafe where he purchased the quick pick ticket got a selling bonus of $A66,000, the lottery said.
A spokesman for the Oregon Lottery told CNN MacDonald hadn't agreed to any interviews or to release any images of himself, so you'll have to imagine the grin on his face when he found out about his winnings. Winning the lotto is rare. Like 1 in 300 million rare. MacDonald is lucky, indeed. Winning the lottery is exceedingly rare.

US ‘locked and loaded’ after Saudi oil attack as prices soar | Sky News AustraliaGlobal oil prices have surged following the bombing of two massive Saudi energy plants at the weekend.\n\nAnalysts have warned motorists are likely to feel the effects in coming days as pump prices are set to rise with fears Australians could be hit by a petrol hike of 10 cents per litre within weeks. \n\nDrones bombed the Abqaiq facility in Saudi Arabia and the Khurais oil field, operated by the state-owned Saudi Aramco, on Saturday according to the kingdom's interior ministry.\n\nThe plants produce nearly six per cent of the world's oil and half of Saudi's, with the attack cutting output by 5.7 million barrels a day.\n\nSaudi Arabia has promised to fill in the production gap with its reserves but Aramco said the damage could take weeks to repair.\n\nOn Sunday United States President Donald Trump said oil from the US' emergency fuel storage of 640 million barrels, held in Louisiana and Texas, will be released if needed.\n\nThe bombing has heightened tensions in the region with the US claiming Iran was responsible for the assault which was almost immediately claimed by Iran-backed Houthi rebels from Yemen.\n\nMr Trump said the US had fresh evidence to back up Secretary of State Mike Pompeo's allegation that Iran was responsible.\n\nMr Trump tweeted the US is 'locked and loaded' — depending on verification — and he is waiting to hear from the Saudis about who they believe attacked the plants.
