A CANBERRA man has admitted he spent yesterday screening phone calls assuming it was a telemarketer, not news of a million-dollar Wednesday Lotto win.
He held the only division one winning entry nationally and won a division one prize of $1 million.
He bought his ticket online at thelott.com
When asked how he thought he might enjoy his million-dollar windfall he said: “I’ve got children and grandchildren, and they are the first people who came to mind, so I definitely want to be able to help them.
“This is just fantastic; it means I will be able to retire early.”
Who can be trusted?
In a world of spin and confusion, there’s never been a more important time to support independent journalism in Canberra.
If you trust our work online and want to enforce the power of independent voices, I invite you to make a small contribution.
Every dollar of support is invested back into our journalism to help keep citynews.com.au strong and free.
Thank you,
