Grilling catfish for a living may be a thing of the past for a lucky Sattahip resident who dreamed the number 12 and two days later won 42 million baht in the country’s lottery.
Bualai Bamrung fainted at her Sriprapat Market catfish stand when the results were announced Sept. 16. Once she regained consciousness, the 42-year-old woman rushed to the police station with her three winning tickets to register her win.
Bualai Bamrung dreamt of the number 12, and a few days later won 42 million baht in the lottery.
Luck and superstition run hand-in-hand, but in Bualai’s case, it seems to have worked. She said that just two nights before she had dreamed of a beautiful, long-haired woman wearing the number 12. The next day she was approached by a lottery-ticket seller who offered her three sets of tickets all ending in the number 12. There was no way she was going to pass up that kind of coincidence.
Bualai’s stand is closed now, but she told reporters she doesn’t plan to change anything in her life and will continue to serve up fresh fish.
She was, however, a touch scared of having come into such a fortune and rushed off have police verify her tickets and escort her to the bank. Later she and her family, who’d only just moved into a new home in Plutaluang, went to Bangkok to claim her prize and celebrate. Neighbors said they’ve not been able to contact her for a few days, but police said she had turned off her phone amid a deluge of phone calls from charities, foundations and long-lost family members who’ve learned of her windfall.
