June 13 (UPI) — A Colorado couple who won $500,000 on a scratch-off ticket revealed they previously won lottery jackpots for $5 million and $4,000.

The Colorado Lottery said the couple, whose names were not released, purchased four Brilliant Bucks Scratch tickets recently and discovered one of them was a $500,000 winner.

The couple told officials the ticket was not their first lottery windfall — they won a $5 million Colorado Lottery jackpot several years ago.

The couple said they also once won $4,000 from the California lottery.

The pair dubbed their latest winnings a “retirement fund.”
