Have you ever thought about what you would buy if you won the lottery?
Perhaps a house or car, or maybe a luxurious vacation?
A man named Neil Jones decided to invest in pursuing pool, a long-lost hobby.

Thirteen years later, Jones is now representing England as captain of the international team in Malta.
Soon after receiving his life-changing lottery winnings, the former tiler went shopping for his first pool table.
Winning the lottery allowed me to put those hours in, he added.
Eventually, all of his hard work paid off, and Jones quickly shot up in the rankings.
This led him to becoming the captain of his country’s international team earlier this year.
Jones will play alongside his teammates in Malta for the European Championships this November.
