So I asked my partner again and it was a good friend of hers who told her that it happened to someone she knows.
The next time I see her, I’ll have to ask her.

probably it is a dumb thing to ask, but this mindgame is interesting for me.
So the probability depends of the no. winners in the game. But does it also depend of the no. of loosers still in the game?
If yes, it would be impossible to guess the exakt probability, right?

check for example the rules for No 2255 and 2244. Looks to me like there are two main prizes in each series. But the series can overlap each other.
If this is right I kindly ask you @assemblyrequired to not only investigate if this really happend but also to figure out
a) wedding date
b) date when happy couple the first time spoke to a third person about this special gift idea
or
c) the Series number of all the lottery tickets they were gifted

Keep us posted about your investigation, but that is one corner too much for me to bet on it being real.

The Win For Life are not like a classical lottery where there is only one event on the drawing day.
Lottery scratch tickets are issued in batches and different series might run in parallel for some time. There might be 2, 3 or more tickets in circulation at any time.
Also the Rento tickets of Loterie romande are similar to WFL and could also have contributed.
So, if all the tickets are not from the same batch then there is a chance > 0 that you might win 4000 per month twice.
It’s very unlikely, but things like this have happened
So it might be true. If it actually happened is a different question.
Usually a smart person with some routine in her job can run a guesstimate calculation pretty quick in their head and be roughly correct. But I am talking about engineering, not finance.
If you ever want to run a calculation of propabilities that depend on each other, use deepseek or chatgpt and then make sure it is plausible. This is one of the few things that I have found that deepseek calculates pretty well.
Yes, they are generally good at calculating fast, but they can make mistakes that are subtle and difficult to catch.
