The Melbournian held one of the 10 division one winning entries in draw 4277, drawn Saturday 16 July 2022 and takes home a total prize of $541,505.77.

“I found out right after the draw that I had a division one winning entry and I had to immediately share the news with my best friend.” the winning man admitted.

“We ended up celebrating the windfall together over the weekend.

“It’s beautiful, I am obviously still in shock.

“I don’t know, this is life-changing! I never thought this could happen to me.

“I didn’t have any plans when I first found out.

“Now that I’ve had some time to digest the news, I think I’ll invest some of the prize and purchase a new car!

“I’m going to continue working but this is going to make life easier.

“I’m still so shocked! Maybe I’ll even visit Queensland, who knows.

“Thank you so much.”
