Before winning the lottery $2,76 million in 2005, the couple Lara and Roger rarely argued. They lived in harmony and mutual understanding. The money allowed them to fulfill the major dream of their lives: husband and wife bought a huge house for a million dollars, and the remaining money spent on a luxury Porsche.

Unfortunately, six years later, the happiness ended: Roger drove off in a Porsche in the blue distance, after Lara has accused him of cheating with another woman. 14-year-old marriage came to an end, and the dream house was burned in a horrible fire.

Spouses Martyn and Kay Tott from Britain in 1994, was lucky to win $5 million, but here’s the thing — the couple had lost the ticket.

The trouble would not be trouble if the husband and wife just declared her missing. They could do so only within 30 days from the announcement of the prize. So this victory was the biggest unreported winnings in the history of lotteries.

“The idea that you can get the money — very freeing. But when you know that nothing will come of it, feel the opposite feeling — shared key. — It takes life force and puts your marriage to the test. It was the cruelest torture of all possible”.
