Luck's a fortune....
Is it just me or does everyone wish they were a lucky bugger?
There are some amazing tales of luck in the paper today.
On the front page of the Courier Mail is the tale of a Cloncurry man whose barren block of land has made him an on paper one hundred millionaire Apparently Wayne McCrae has been telling people for years the block could be the biggest copper mine in the world…and now it seems the experts agree with him. Wayne’s company shares have been worth 3c each for years…this week they jumped to ten dollars a share…WOOHOO!
A couple in their 50’s who live in Kalgoorlie WA have won 25 million dollars in OZ Lotto. It’s the first time they’ve ever played OZ Lotto.
A Queensland university dropout has won more an one million dollars playing poker in Las Vegas. There’s someone unlucky in his tale though, apparently this 22 year old broke up with his girl friend a couple of months ago when she got sick of his dream to be a professional poker player…
And the last lucky bugger is a Gold Coast cabbie who you might have seen on the Denton show ‘Enough Rope’ on Monday night. Gerard Donaghy was apparently hilarious on the show…Eddie Mcguire saw it, and two days ago signed Gerard on to channel nine as a roving reporter.
Gerard says he still doesn’t know what Channel nine actually wants him to do…but no doubt he’s very happy to be on a retainer.
A spokesperson from Nine says Gerard’ll most likely be a roving reporter on the footy show…a bit like the deli guy on Dave Letterman. But I love it. What a great story.
I love a lucky bugger…just wish I could get some of that action myself!
