The New South Wales resident scored the only division one prize nationally in Weekday Windfall draw 4434 and pocketed a neat $1 million.

“I know why you’re calling!” the winning man laughed.
“I checked my ticket just before and I’m over the moon.
“I’m excited but pretty calm actually.
“My kids mean the world to me, so I already know I’ll be helping them out.
“They’re not going to believe me, that’s for sure!
“I wouldn’t mind doing some overseas travelling too.
“Thank you so much.”
