Word of the Day: Windfall
Halloween Jumbo is coming up, and you know what that means: someone will get an unexpected windfall.
A windfall is a significant amount of money that you unexpectedly receive.
Many people will purchase a ticket and dream about what they would do if they were to win.
However, most will not expect to receive winnings from the Halloween Jumbo.
Another way to receive a windfall is through inheritance.
You know that sometimes a relative passes away and unexpectedly leaves family members a lot of property or money.
Boy, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, I would love for that to happen.
Don’t get me wrong; I’m not hoping that one of my relatives kicks the bucket, but I could use a windfall just before Christmas.
It looks like I’ll have to buy a Halloween Jumbo ticket, cross my fingers and hope for the best.
