I believe the oldest recorded winner of a major international lottery game is Edwin Edwards, an American man who won the Louisiana Lotto jackpot in 2011 at the age of 91. However, internationally, the oldest winner is thought to be Chris Smith, a British man who won £1 million (approximately $1.6 million) in the UK National Lottery in 2010 at the age of 93.
 
Both Edwin Edwards and Chris Smith are remarkable winners of major lottery games, showcasing that luck knows no age limit. It's inspiring to see individuals in their nineties winning substantial lottery prizes, defying the odds and enjoying newfound financial security later in life. These stories remind us that it's never too late to dream big and potentially see those dreams come true through a stroke of luck. It's heartwarming to hear about such stories of unexpected joy and prosperity in the golden years of life.
