Life is looking much brighter today for a young family from Sydney’s south after they learned they were $1 million richer.
The family was the only winner in Lotto draw 3800 on Monday night winning the guaranteed division one prize of $1 million.
When speaking with a NSW Lotteries official this morning, the dad revealed what this win means for him and his young family.
“Wow!” he exclaimed. “This is life-changing. Truly life-changing.”
The thrilled winner, who wishes to remain anonymous, purchased his 24-game QuickPick entry online at thelott.com.
When asked about how he planned to spend his windfall, the ecstatic young dad said he was looking forward to finally being able to purchase a property.
“We’ll pay off our debts and finally buy a house,” he said.
“We’ll also put some money aside for our son – something for the future.”
This is the eighth time this calendar year a southern Sydney local has won Monday & Wednesday Lotto or Saturday Lotto with five of these wins creating millionaires.
The winning numbers in Monday night’s draw were 2, 7, 16, 36, 37 and 40, while the supplementary numbers were 11 and 26.
