A Raleigh, North Carolina woman is four-million-dollars richer just days after becoming unemployed.
Camella McClain tells the "Charlotte News Observer" she was downsized from her receptionist's job of two decades just one week ago.
On Thursday, McClain bought two 20-dollar tickets for a new scratch-off game called "Cash Blowout."
One of the tickets made McClain the first grand prize winner in the game's history.
She'll collect about 136-thousand-dollars a year for the next 20 years.
