Oslo:
A Norwegian family has hit the jackpot not once but three times, after winning millions of euros on three separate occasions within the space of only a few years.
Last week, Tord Oksnes became a millionaire at the age of 19 after winning 12.2 million kroner (more than 1.6 million euros or $2.1 million) on Norway's national lottery, tabloid Verdens Gang (VG) wrote on Tuesday.
In doing so he became part of a lucrative family tradition that has seen his 26 year-old sister, Hege Jeanette, collect 8.2 million kroner in 2010, only four years after their 58 year-old father Leif won 4.1 million kroner on the same lottery.
The lucky numbers were drawn every time Hege Jeanette was pregnant or had just given birth.
