lottery win
Numbers-based fortune change
A lottery win is the event of winning money or prizes in a lottery—a game of chance where numbered tickets are drawn at random.
The phrase often implies a large, life-changing sum: Their lottery win let them retire early.
Figuratively, anything gained through extraordinary luck rather than effort: Getting that apartment was a lottery win.
