A change in a Central Coast man’s tone of voice led his wife to believe something was wrong, but then he revealed he’d just had a $200,000 Lucky Lotteries win.
The stunned winner took home the guaranteed 1st Prize of $200,000 in Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw 1579, drawn Monday 4 July 2022.
Confirming his incredible win with an official from The Lott, the man said the win couldn’t have come at a better time, with retirement only just around the corner.
“I can’t tell you how much this going to help us, mate!” he proclaimed.
“We’re fast approaching retirement, and this is going to go a long way. We can purchase a property that we can comfortably spend the rest of our lives in.
“Lucky Lotteries is my favourite game to play too!
“I think you have to have hope that one day you’ll win big otherwise, you wouldn’t play.
“There are times when you think, ‘maybe it isn’t meant to be’, but this just shows me that everything happens for a reason.
“My wife thought I might have been having a heart attack when I yelled out to her. But then she burst into tears when I told her what had happened!
“It’s an incredible day. Thank you so much!”
The winning man’s entry of two consecutive numbers was purchased online at thelott.com – the official home of Australia’s lotteries.
