Palmerston Teacher Rides Money Train 3

Palmerston North, New Zealand – For 42-year-old Kate Wilson, life as a high school English teacher is all about deadlines—lesson planning, correcting essays, and encouraging students who’d rather be anywhere but class. Evenings are usually quiet affairs: a pot of tea, a stack of marked assignments, and her faithful tabby cat curled up nearby.

But one Tuesday night, while taking short breaks between grading essays, Kate found herself on a very different kind of journey—aboard the Money Train 3 game, where she cashed out with NZ$84,700.

“I wasn’t looking for excitement—I already had a pile of work in front of me. But I thought, why not spin for a few minutes to clear my head?”

The Winning Ride

Money Train 3 is a high-energy game packed with bonus features and multipliers. Where special bonus symbols keep re-triggering the round, stacking multipliers until the train screeches to a dramatic halt. By the final retrigger, her balance soared to NZ$84,700.

“I just sat there staring. My red pen was still in my hand—I dropped it and started laughing. My cat jumped off the table, totally confused.”

How Kate Used Her Winnings

True to her nature, Kate made practical but meaningful choices:

• Bought a set of new laptops for her classroom out of her own pocket
• Set aside money for a long-dreamed-of trip on the TranzAlpine train across New Zealand
• Put the rest into savings for future security

“I always tell my students that words can change your life. But that night, it was numbers on a screen. It’s not about luxury—it’s about freedom.”
