Sloan Stanley, 18, admitted that she had beginners luck when she purchased a $5 dollar Cash Cow Instant game at the County Harvest Apple Market in Meriden Kansas a few days after her 18th birthday.
Sloan won the grand prize of $25,000 dollars which she will use to enroll at Fort Hays State University in the fall.
Her goal is to attend college debt free with the use of her lottery winnings which is a wise choice for her since learning is the way for her to have a wonderful life.

Not a lot of money, but I would still gladly take it. I do wish they would make it law to allow winners to remain anonymous if they so choose. Some states allow it, others do not, and I think Kansas is one of those states that do not allow the option.
Good for her though, and I am glad she will make good use of the winnings.

If I won a huge lottery prize, I would also like to stay away from having people who I am since I have heard the horror stories of fake relatives asking the winner for money.

@Deepizzaguy I have one word that would serve its purpose well and be just fine. "No." lol

I hope she can continue her education debt free.
Have you ever written anything about your life here? If rather read that than need stories you find.
