June 22 (UPI) -- A Michigan man said his feelings were 'hard to put into words' after winning a $4 million prize from a scratch-off lottery ticket -- for the second time.
A financial consultant to lottery winners and the. Whittaker was also robbed of $545,000 sitting in his car while he was at a strip club eight months after winning the lottery.

The main goal of the lottery is to raise all-important funds for state education, right from preschool through to college. The Lottery joined Powerball in 2006, followed by Mega Millions in 2010. The North Carolina Lottery, to date, has allocated more than $5.5 billion to education initiatives in the state.
Mark Clark, 50, of South Rockwood, told Michigan Lottery officials he bought a $150,000,000 Payout scratch-off ticket from Ash Market in Carleton and scratched it off inside the store using a special coin.
'I scratched the ticket off in the store with a coin my dad gave me about 10 years ago. We lost him about a year ago after some health struggles, and I can't help but think maybe that lucky coin helped me win this,' Clark recalled.
The player said he was shocked to see he had won a $4 million jackpot -- just three years after he won $4 million from a Millionaire's Club scratch-off ticket.
'You don't think you'll win millions once, and you definitely never think it would happen twice,' Clark said. 'It's hard to put into words exactly what I am feeling.'
Clark said his plans for the winnings are similar to his plans for his 2017 jackpot.
'After the first win, I retired from my job and spent a lot of time fishing. My dad and I always used to fish together and have great memories of that, so this will help me keep fishing and enjoying time with my son and family,' he said.
