I won £1m on the Euromillions at 18 – now I’ve scooped another £1.4k on a £5 bet
A WOMAN seems to be rolling in good fortune after becoming the youngest person to win the Euromillions and now winning £1.4k on a £5 bet.
Jane Park, from Edinburgh, won £1million at the age of just 17 back in 2013 and her luck hasn't worn off just yet.
She landed a treble at last month's Cheltenham festival at combined odds of 281/1.
And she had her late grandad to thank for the win, as one of her picks was a huge outsider.
Jane wrote online: "Only me would put a 18/1 winner in there grandad Johny taught me all about the horses."
She backed State Man at 27/10, The Nice Guy 18/1 and A Plus Tard at 3/1.

To top it off, Jane didn't even watch the race and only realised she had won when she saw her betting account balance.
She wrote online: "Cannae believe it myself, was like where’s that money came from when I went on Bet365 then realised.
“I put it on and forgot about it, I could not believe my eyes.”
The social media star even won £70 on a free £5 bet at the races.
At the time of her £1million win, which saw her become the youngest Euromillions winner, Jane was working as an admin temp earning £8-an-hour.
At the time she was living in a two-bedroom Edinburgh council flat she shared with her mum Linda.
After the win, she quit her job, booked a two month holiday in Magaluf, bought herself a chihuahua, two homes, cars, and an array of designer goods.
But it wasn't all plain sailing for Jane, who admits the money made her feel 'miserable'.
"Winning the lottery made me miserable."
She claimed her life was “empty” and planned to sue National Lottery operator Camelot, saying “at times it feels like winning the lottery has ruined my life”.
Jane now lives in Dubai, and she nearly died from sepsis after a botched Brazilian bum lift.
She previously said: “I was hooked up on drips and I ended up having septicaemia.

“I remember being in there for like a month and when I got to the hospital on the first night, she was like ‘If you had have left that 24 hours later it could’ve been fatal’.”
The social media star has been banned from the roads for 18 months after being convicted of drink driving due to being caught behind the wheel at three times the legal limit.
