然而就在上個月底,羅伯特剛看完球賽,一如往常拿出剛買好的彩券,對著電視螢幕對號碼,那天早上買彩券時,店員還揶揄了他一番,「明天你又會再來買的!」但萬萬沒想到,下一秒羅伯特便揉揉眼睛,不敢相信電視上的號碼就和自己買了25年的號碼一樣!

就連老天爺都佩服羅伯特的毅力,讓他在25年後贏得3億多美金的頭彩,相當於台幣近百億的獎金!領獎當天,羅伯特興奮接受訪問表示,「我打算帶家人去旅行,也計畫給我媽媽買一塊地,我的堅持總算沒有白費!」
Robert Bailey of Harlem is taking the lump sum, which after taxes will be a little more than $125 million. Even though he won, he still played the lottery this morning. Says he waited to claim because he wanted to talk to a lawyer and financial advisor. #1010WINS pic.twitter.com/HpG9Pchc7z
或許在旁人看來,羅伯特的堅持的確有點好笑,但或許傻人有傻福,老天爺還真的幫他實現願望了呢~
