The ultimate goal for most people is to win, whatever they are engaged in, whether a contest or a job or whatever you can possibly imagine. There’s that feeling of euphoria at such success that overpowers people.
Well, it might be said that Gugulethu chess champ Neil Horne felt exactly that way becoming the first to win a princely six figures on the Wheel of Fortune.
Of course, in such a moment, one is likely to see a winner noticeably exultant or exuberant. Not Neil Horne. He managed to maintain a calm appearance despite the obvious thrill of winning.
Wheel of Fortune South Africa. is a spinoff of an American show of the same name that has been airing since 1975. It officially came to South Africa on April 8 this year. Since then, it has become a staple of sorts for some lovers of reality shows.
Earlier in the game, Neil earned R2,600. With his R100k grand prize win, he takes home an impressive R102,600 – certainly not bad for a man who has put in the work to develop his work skills.
Well, it will be interesting to see which other winner will emerge after him. For now, one can only congratulate Neil Horne.
