"Incredible: Man's Wealth Surges by $100k, a Surreal Twist of Fortune" |
In a surprising turn of events, a man from Forbes in the central west region of New South Wales is grappling with the realization that he and his wife are now $100,000 richer after winning the first prize in Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw 10825, held on Wednesday.
The fortunate winner shared that he initially dismissed the idea of their victory when he was contacted about the winning number. I don’t know what to say!" he exclaimed.
The couple, who only played the lottery
"sporadically," had forgotten about their winning ticket. The man
recounted the moment of revelation, saying, "We were at the shops, and my
wife had gone to buy a Powerball ticket while I ran a few errands. I thought
she’d disappeared. I thought: ‘Yeah sure, I’ve heard that before.’ How wrong I
was!"
Although they haven't fully processed how their lives will
change, the lucky pair is considering taking a holiday and assisting their
families with their newfound fortune.
The winning ticket was purchased at News on Rankin in Forbes,
and the store's team is ecstatic about selling the winning ticket. Madison
Borwell, a team member, expressed their joy, saying, "We’re so happy to
hear the news that our small country outlet has sold a first prize winning
ticket. The whole community is thrilled and sending congratulations and well
wishes to the lucky winner."
In the midst of this individual stroke of luck, there's still an
opportunity for Australians to vie for the nation's second-largest jackpot in
history. The Powerball draw is set to reach a whopping $150 million. Despite
high expectations and widespread participation, no player secured a division
one winning entry in the recent Powerball draw.
Fifteen entries across Australia did, however,
win $132,040.20 each for the second division prize. The winning numbers for the
January 18 Powerball draw 1444 were: 21, 31, 17, 22, 20, 24, 34, and the Powerball
