A math professor specializing in statistics has won the lottery 4 times!

Who says college doesn’t pay off.Joan R. Ginther, 63, from Texas has won multiple million dollar payouts from the lottery four times.

First she won $5.4 million, then a decade later, she won $2 million, and two years later $3 million, and just a year later, she hit the $10 million jackpot. The odds of this have been calculated at one in eighteen septillion.

However, Ms. Ginther is a former math professor with a PhD from Stanford University specializing in statistics.

There are a few speculations about how she could have pulled off this statistical miracle. Many suggest that she figured out the algorithm that determines whether a winner is placed in each run of scratch-off tickets.

Although she won all four of her lotteries in Texas, Ms.Ginther is now living the good life in Las Vegas.
