It's something great to hear at the end of 2020 when people have been through a tough time either financially or emotionally. There are some people whose ending of this year has become life-changing for them. Like, take the news of these two friends from Australia who are lucky enough to win a lottery worth 1 Million Dollars. Although they had been entering the lottery for several years.
Since they won a TattsLotto jackpot of $1 million after pulling numbers out of a hat, friends from Point Cook, Victoria, scored big time.
In TattsLotto draw 4115, drawn on Saturday, 26 December, the pair kept one of the six division one winning entries nationwide, with each division one winning entry taking home a staggering $1,061,316.47.
"My little heart's going so fast," one of the winning pair told an official from The Lott confirmed her win. Since deciding on a group of numbers they selected using the unconventional measure, the friends demonstrated to officials that they had been joining the lottery as a pair for many years.
"We've been using the same numbers all this time. He gave me some numbers, then I had some numbers, and we just drew them out of a hat to put on our entry," the woman said.
"I've always said if I ever win division one, a couple of hundred thousand dollars would do me."
She also added that to get new floorboards, she would use her share of the prize.
"I want my floorboards done," she said.
"I've got a carpet under the dining table and I've always wanted floorboards. I might get a new car, too. I also want to help my family. I'll be able to help them a lot."
