A 19-year-old Hawthorn man is happily rewriting his future life plans after landing a marvellous $1 million win in last night’s Weekday Windfall draw.

The Melburnian held the only division one winning entry nationally in Weekday Windfall draw 4524, drawn Monday 24 March 2025.

Despite discovering his newly minted millionaire status last night, the young man was still in a state of disbelief and couldn’t comprehend that his life had transformed in an instant.

“Thank you! Thank you!” he shared.

“It feels pretty good. It’s unreal.

“I saw that my ticket had all the winning numbers around 9pm last night. My dad was asleep, but I woke him up because I needed his opinion on whether I had won.

“My mum came in and she said, ‘No, you need to have the supplementary numbers as well to win division one’, and dad disagreed.

“There was a lot of back and forth, so we waited until the results came up.

“We started to get really excited when we realised, I did in fact win division one!

“I’m definitely going to celebrate with some mates on the weekend. Maybe have some celebratory whisky.”

When asked what he would do with his million-dollar prize, the young man replied that he already had some initial plans.

“I’m going to get my uni degree all paid up. I won’t have to worry about it anymore,” he shared.

“I’ll also get my car payments out of the way and help out my parents.

“It’s very exciting.”

His winning 24-game QuickPick was purchased via The Lott app – the official home of Australia’s lotteries.

The winning numbers in Weekday Windfall draw 4524 on Monday 24 March 2025 were 2, 16, 31, 1, 3 and 22, while the supplementary numbers were 41 and 14.

The Lott’s division one winning tally has now reached 345 so far in FY25, including 129 won by Tatts customers.
