- From Security Guard to Millionaire: Filipina's Lucky Break in UAE
A 36-year-old Filipina security guard in the UAE has experienced a life-changing moment after winning AED 1 million (over P16 million) in the Big Ticket December e-draw. Christine Requerque Pedido, who had never purchased a Big Ticket before, hit the jackpot on her very first try, proving that luck can strike when least expected.
Pedido's journey to success began six years ago when she first arrived in the UAE. As a newcomer struggling to make ends meet, buying a Big Ticket was an expense she couldn't afford. However, this year, after seeing a Facebook promotion, she decided to take a chance.
Unable to purchase a ticket on her own, Pedido joined forces with ten of her colleagues, pooling their money together. This collaborative effort turned out to be the key to their incredible fortune.
"I never expected this would happen. To win on my very first ticket feels absolutely surreal," said Pedido, her joy evident. "It proves that luck can find you when you least expect it."
Although the victory is a personal one for Pedido, the win is a shared triumph for her and her colleagues. The group is now excitedly discussing how to best utilize their newfound wealth.
"We're still deciding whether to save the prize money or invest it in a business," Pedido shared.
The Big Ticket Millionaire series has been awarding impressive prizes throughout December, with four lucky winners each week taking home AED 1 million. Pedido's story is a testament to the life-changing possibilities that the Big Ticket offers and a heartwarming example of the power of teamwork and shared dreams.
