    Let \(f\) be a strongly additive complex-valued arithmetic function satisfying some mild conditions. It is proved that if \(X,X_{1},X_{2},\dots \) is any sequence of integrable i.i.d.\ random variables, then \[ \lim_{N\rightarrow \infty } \frac{\sum_{n=1}^{N}f(n) X_{n}}{\sum_{n=1}^{N}f(n)}=\mathbb{E}X\quad \text{a.s.} \]
