A Canadian man has lucked out – winning the lottery, celebrating his retirement and ringing in his birthday all within 24 hours. Vancouver man Ping Kuen Shum won the British Columbia lottery on April 28.

The British Columbia Lottery Corporation has confirmed Shum’s winnings, which he accepted on Wednesday.

‘It’s unbelievable that all three events happened on the same day,’ Shum said to the BBC.
