The hunt for a first home has become a financial reality for a Belconnen man after he won $2 million in the weekend’s Saturday Lotto Megadraw.
He held one of the 15 division one winning entries in the draw on 24 June.
The ACT winner said he was “ecstatic” to have won alongside so many other people.
“I love the fact that I get to share this life-changing win with so many other Australians,” he said.
“Hopefully, it helps a lot of people!”
He had bought his winning entry online.
The Belconnen man planned to pay off some debts and share some of the money with family and friends before beginning his house hunt.
“I can’t wait to start shopping around. It’s going to be so exciting,” he said.
“I start to think about what this win will do for me and my family, and it’s really overwhelming.”
Of the 15 division one winning entries, there were six each from Queensland and NSW, two from Victoria and one from Western Australia.
