The recent $10 million Oz Lotto on Tuesday 28th July saw not one but two Division One winners! The two $10 Million Oz Lotto winners were able to share the jackpot and took $5.8 million each. Learn about the winners and their stories below.
After losing his job as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, a lucky man from Western Australia won Division One in the $10 Million Oz Lotto. Although he wasn’t the only winner, he walked away with $5.8 million!
The young father was buying groceries for his 3-year-old daughter when he spotted the newsagency. He decided to buy a ticket on a whim and see what happens.
After finding out about his win, he was over the moon. He said, “I just want to go home and hug my daughter. I always say that life could be a dream, and this certainly feels like one. I’m always reading the news about Lotto winners and never thought it could be me”.
He hadn’t thought too much about how he was going to spend his winnings, but he knew that he was going to buy his brother a house, his mum a car, and set up his daughter’s future. What an incredibly selfless way for him to spend his winnings.
Congratulations to the lucky family.
The other $10 million Oz Lotto winners were a couple from Brisbane! After checking his winning ticket on the way to work, all of sudden plans had changed. No work was being done on this life-changing day.
the excited couple said “I just couldn’t believe it. I thought there had to be some mistake. It’s surreal, we can’t get our head around it. I think it’s safe to say my wife and I are very much in shock”.
Despite winning such a large amount of money, the couple a sure they will continue working. They are both very relieved about their new found financial freedom.
Congratulations!
