A man from Versoud, near Grenoble, saw his life change in an instant. On January 10, during a draw for My million, he became a millionaire by winning a million euros according to the site Tirage-gagnant.com.

According to information from the Dauphiné Libéré, it all starts with a family meal, where the father offers his children to build a kitty to participate in the next Euromillions draw. Proposal accepted immediately.

He plays the sum at a service station near the family home. He returned there a few days later where he was told the first good news: he was one of the winners of a "big win ticket" (sum which exceeds 30,000 euros). It was then directly to the FDJ that he learned that he had become a millionaire. Indeed, the code of his ticket which appears on the receipt when validating a Euro Millions grid, was selected at random even if he did not find the winning combination. What to envisage the future more serenely.
