ST. LOUIS - For a Missouri man, luck comes in pairs.

Against odds of 1 in 1.36 million Ernest Pullen clinched his first million-dollar win in June when he scratched off the "100 Million Dollar Blockbuster" prize on a lottery ticket.

The 57-year-old Bonne Terre, Mo man did it again this month, against even bigger odds, and doubled that prize by winning $2 million on a "Mega MONOPOLY" scratchers ticket he purchased on September 17, according to officials with the Missouri Lottery.

"That was his second time winning," said Misty Eye, store manager of the Miller's Quick Shop that sold Pullen the prize-winner. "He acted like it was no big deal."

Pullen could not be reached for comment, but lottery officials said he told them he had had a dream that he won the lottery and considers himself "a lucky guy."

Pullen opted to take a lump sum cash payment worth $1.3 million before taxes after his latest win.

He plans to use some of the money to fix up his house.

The BIG Story behind IKEA's success Founder

Baru buka email pagi2 di kantor, trus terima salah satu yg isinya sangat menginspirasi. Berikut isinya:

We all like to hear inspiring and uplifting stories, especially when we are facing tough economic times. For that reason, we would like to present to you the “Talent of the Month” feature. Once a month, we will share with you a brief biography of a successful person. These are people who have found success in the midst of tough times, and we hope these stories will inspire and motivate you.

We all are very familiar with IKEA** and own at least a piece of furniture from this world-famous brand. IKEA is a top home furniture retailer, with over 90,000 employees working in its 200-plus stores, and annual revenues in excess of US$10 billion.

So, our “Talent of the Month” this time is the IKEA owner, Ingvar Kamprad. He is listed in FORBES as the fourth richest person in the world, with a net worth of US$28 billion. But do you know that he had a humble beginning?

As a young boy, from his bicycle, he began selling matches to neighbors. Later, he discovered that by buying matches in bulk, he could get them cheaply and sell them individually at a low price, and still make a good profit.

From matches, he expanded to selling other things such as Christmas tree decorations, seeds and pencils. The breakthrough came when he was 17. His father gave him a cash reward to continue his studies, but instead, he used it to establish IKEA.

Today, this seventy-nine-year old self-made billionaire still practices modesty; he avoids wearing suits and prefers to fly economy class.

There are a few lessons that we can learn from him, by looking at some of his famous quotes:

Lesson #1: The Best Leadership is by Example “If there is such a thing as good leadership, it is to give a good example,” “I have to do so for all the Ikea employees.” “How can I ask people who work for me to travel cheaply if I am traveling in luxury? It’s a question of good leadership.”

Lesson #2: Time is your Best Asset “Time is your most important resource,” “You can do so much in ten minutes. Ten minutes, once gone, are gone for good.”

Lesson #3: Mistakes are a Must on the Road to Success “Only those who are asleep make no mistakes,” “There are few people who have made so many fiascos in my life as I have.”

And, last but not least: “The word impossible has been and must remain deleted from our dictionary,” because when others said it couldn’t be done, Ingvar Kamprad went and did it. ** IKEA is one of the biggest retailer especially for selling furniture and household things, originated from Sweden.
