Powerball players are known for using various personal methods, such as birthdays and anniversaries, to help them choose the lucky numbers. Kevin Millard, a man from west Hollywood who just won $1 million, attributes his Powerball fortune to the pestering of an online psychic.
The 54-year-old winner was getting some psychic advice during a “free trial,” but once that was up he didn’t want to spring for the cash to continue. KTLA News reports that Millard's said,“She would hit me periodically with messages saying ‘Your money’s coming. This year is a change for you.’”
With those words in his head, he decided to play the lotto that he had recently been cutting back on, and ended up matching five out of six numbers. “I thought, ‘I gotta play a lottery ticket. Maybe she’s right,’” he said.
Millard is not sure yet how he will spend his money, but says, “I don’t want to squander it.”
