Not everyone admits to talking to themselves, but a little voice inside the head exists in everyone and engaging in a little self-tittle-tattle isn’t only completely normal — it’s good for you.
The same is true for Joseph Drum, a 43-year-old man from Lincoln Park, who came pretty close to not winning a dime where it not for a monologue in his head that urged him to buy one more ticket. That ticket changed his luck and he hit it big with a $170,842 Black Jack Fast Cash progressive jackpot win.
“I stopped and bought one ticket at the 7-Eleven store located at 1365 Dix Highway in Lincoln Park, but it wasn’t a winner,” Mr. Drum said. “When I got back in my truck, just before I started it, a little voice in my head told me to buy another ticket. ” This time, he walked out of the 7-Eleven with a Black Jack Fast Cash progressive jackpot-winning ticket worth $170,842.
Mr. Drum visited the Michigan Lottery headquarters, located at 101 E. Hillsdale in downtown Lansing to claim his big winnings on Monday. He plans to fix up his house and buy a new TV.
