Joey Penn is in the money - in fact he is in a whole lot of money. The Zacary, Louisiana resident decided to play the slot machines and won a bundle. He went over the Las Vegas and decided to do a little gambling and walked away a millionaire. 

He was in town for a furniture convention and he and his wife decided to try their luck at the Megabucks slot machine at the Wynn Casino. At roughly 7 pm, he put $100 into the Megabucks slot machine and won $12.6 million. Talk about a return on your investment. 

“Just before it hit, I had told my wife that somebody has to hit it - why not us?” Penn joked. The couple’s last trip to Vegas had been fruitful as well; his wife Melissa won $30,000 that time. They are planning on buying furniture for their new home, paying for his kids’ college education, and buying his wife a Bentley Continental GT.
