“I just want us to be secure in life. I’ll look at a few investments and try a keep a level head.”

For the past few months, he’d been using numbers that were significant to his family, he said.

The winning ticket was bought at Endeavour Lotto & News at Endeavour Hills shopping centre.

“We can’t wait to share this exciting news with all of our customers this week,” she said.

“It’s been an incredible run. This is our 29th division one winning ticket sold in the store and the first for 2022.

“Our shop’s motto is ‘dreams come true here’, and they obviously do.”
