The latest winner of the lucky family is 19-year-old Tord Oksnes who won 12.2m Norwegian krone (£1.3m) last week on the Norwegian national lottery.
Before him, his 26-year-old sister Hege Jeanette won a massive £882,000 in 2010, only four years after their 58-year-old father Leif won £441,000 on the same lottery.
Now that's what you call lucky!
They say its down to the pregnancy of one of the members. It has happened on three times when she was pregnant or in the hours she was giving birth.
When asked about the family's secret to winning the jackpot, the lucky mother replied: "Getting pregnant."
I wonder how many people will try this tactic in the UK...
Her other brothers, who haven't yet won the lottery have begun paying attention to the size of her stomach, she added.
"They're urging me to have at least 10 children, having children is always nice, but it doesn't happen on command."
The family have said their winning numbers were chosen by a machine, not by them, making it completely random, and that they would never use the planned birth dates of the children.
Tord said he'll keep his job and his sister still works at the petrol station she worked at before the winning, however she's currently on maternity leave...
Will this be another win for the Oksnes family?
