A formula to win the lottery? American Joan Ginther is known as “the best player in history” or “the luckiest woman in the world” after winning the lottery jackpot four times. On 24 other occasions, he won minor awards.

Ginther is a former mathematics teacher, specializing in calculus, so many think that if there is a mathematical formula To win the lottery, she must have it.

This teacher reportedly earned her Ph.D. from Stanford University, California, and later began teaching math classes.

Ginther made headlines since 2011, when the media reported that a 63-year-old woman had earned about ten million of dollars with the lottery, but it was not the first time he had pocketed a good sum of money.

By 1993 he had earned $ 5.4 million. In 2006 he also won and took two million. While in 2008 he pocketed another three. By that time, Ginther’s accumulated earnings totaled an impressive $ 20.4 million (more than eighty billion Colombian pesos)”Said the newspaper ‘Clarín’.

The odds of winning that many times, as calculated, is one in eighteen septillion and luck like this could only come once every quadrillion years, ‘Daily Mail’ said in one of its covers.

The prizes were won in two-year intervals, and were obtained by buying scratch-off tickets at the same establishment, according to the aforementioned medium.

Local reporter Nathanial Rich wrote an article in 2011 that questioned ‘luck’ from the teacher.

Rich’s version is that Ginther may have discovered the algorithm which determines where a winner is placed on each series of scratch off tickets. Once the data is obtained, it would be easy to specify where the tickets were sent thanks to the fixed delivery program and some sources that have given the information, ‘Daily Mail’ narrated.

Despite her incredible feat, this teacher has stayed away from the media, she does not give interviews and there are few photographic records of her.

The last word about Ginther was that he had moved to Las Vegas, Nevada, and left Texas, where he bought the tickets and won so many times.
