Fantasies do come true for some people. In the United Kingdom, gas truck driver Leo Scadding could only fantasize about something that could never happen – until it did. In 2009 he bought himself two tickets in the EuroMillion Lottery and went back to the store that evening to check the results Like every other suddenly rich jackpot winner, he couldn’t believe what he was told, that suddenly he was rich beyond his wildest dreams. As he said later, “If anyone says it hasn't changed their life, they're talking out of their backsides. I've got a lovely house, I've got cars, everything is paid for. Before this happened there wasn't enough in the bank for me to draw a tenner out."

And man did it change Leo’s life. He won over $75 million and put his fantasies to the test. Forget his new house and forget the rare Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe he purchased, one of only 253 of the handmade convertibles sold worldwide in its first year of production. Trifles to “The Dream.” The banana split with all the trimmings? He bought his local soccer team, the Newport County AFC and made himself chairman!

And yes, life became very good after that $75 million plus jackpot, the largest ever in the United Kingdom when he scored the winning numbers.
