Hard Luck

Talk about rotten luck…

Gordon Young and his wife Bev were planning to spend their recent $800,000 Tattslotto jackpot win on a dream tour around Australia when they were struck and killed by a car during an afternoon walk on Tuesday.

The death of the recently retired couple from near Leongatha, both in their early 60s, stunned Mr Young’s older brother Eric.

Another brother, Keith, died from diabetes after sharing a $1 million Tattslotto win about seven years ago.

“It’s really a freak coincidence that Bev and Gordon died after winning the money, especially as Keith died a few years after winning $200,000,” Mr Young told AAP.

“I will never buy a Tattslotto ticket again because that’s now two brothers who have died and I don’t want to be next.”

Meanwhile, here in Israel, there is no bad luck involved with this mishap – just gross negligence.
