Belconnen man claims ‘overwhelming’ $2m Lotto win

A Belconnen man is itching to begin the hunt for his first home after bagging $2 million in the weekendโ€™s Saturday Lotto Megadraw.

The ACT resident held one of the 15 division one winning entries nationally and said he was overwhelmed by the life-changing win.

โ€œIโ€™m still quite emotional about it, mate,โ€ the winner revealed.

โ€œI start to think about what this win will do for me and my family and itโ€™s really overwhelming!

โ€œI couldnโ€™t believe it when I realised! I kept asking myself, โ€˜is this real? Itโ€™s unbelievable!”
ย 
โ€œIโ€™m going to pay off some debt, share it with some family and friends and then Iโ€™ll buy my first home!

โ€œI canโ€™t wait to start shopping around. Itโ€™s going to be so exciting.

โ€œWhat an amazing weekend to win too. I love the fact that I get to share this life-changing win with so many other Australians.

โ€œHopefully it helps a lot of people!โ€
