Listen "The Lottery Ticket"
Episode Synopsis
Ethan Carter, a struggling artist in New York, is barely making ends meet. One evening, with only five dollars left, he impulsively buys a lottery ticket but forgets about it. Weeks later, while searching for money to pay his overdue rent, he rediscovers the crumpled ticket in an old sketchbook. To his shock, the ticket is worth $10 million—but there's a catch. The claim deadline is the very next day. Realizing how close he came to missing out on a fortune, Ethan rushes to the lottery office, where his win is confirmed. As he steps back into the world with his newfound wealth, a thought lingers in his mind: How many other opportunities in life had he unknowingly let slip away? A story of luck, fate, and the thin line between fortune and failure.
