A South Sydney man who confessed he was sick of winning small amounts has seen his fortunes change dramatically after discovering he’d won more than $1.8 million in the weekend’s Saturday Lotto Superdraw.

“You’re kidding! I didn’t even check the ticket because I was so sure I would have won nothing!” he laughed when we called to confirm his windfall.

“My heart’s beating, my head’s pounding, I don’t how to feel.

“First thing this money is going to do is pay some bloody bills!

“It couldn’t have come at a better time because everything is so expensive at the minute.

“My kids have been bugging me about buying a jet ski too and I couldn’t afford it before, but I guess now I don’t have an excuse.

“Couldn’t have timed this better – just prior to summer too!

“Thank you so much, mate, this has changed my life.”
