A Math teacher from Silver Spring, Maryland had the luckiest day of her life. Sarah Manchester all thanks to her winning answer became the third 1 million dollar "Wheel of Fortune" winner. What was Sarah's winning answer that led her to being the 1 million dollar "Wheel of Fortune" winner?
On Wednesday, the 1 million dollar "Wheel of Fortune" winner, Sarah Manchester, was given a two word 12-letter puzzle. Thanks to Sarah's choices, which were the letters D, G, H and O, she managed to solve the puzzle immediately. Her winning answer was "Loud Laughter."
Before getting lucky at being the 1 million dollar "Wheel of Fortune" winner, contestants were asked to choose a prize card which contained the amount of cash to be won. In a strike of luck, Sarah had chosen the jackpot of 1 million dollars.
So where will the 1 million dollar "Wheel of Fortune" winner be spending her winnings? Sarah, who teaches math at a school in Northern Virginia, is putting the money to practical use. She'll be placing it into savings for her kids' college tuition. In addition, Sarah will be taking the whole family to France by 2015 for her daughter's choir tour and give a certain amount to charity.
"Now they might have more options that we would have shied away from before," stated Sarah to US Magazine.
Even if the taping for "Wheel of Fortune" was done four months ago, the lucky win had to be kept secret by Sarah and her family who were present in Los Angeles during the taping. Despite being the 1 million dollar "Wheel of Fortune" winner, nothing much has changed for Sarah. Manchester will still be teaching math for her sixth and seventh grade students at Takoma Park Middle School. For now, Sarah is in New York for a few appearances.
