One million rand… Could it be YOU?

That’s it! Entries are closed. Now, it’s the moment of truth…

A Million and Change has officially come to an end. For the past few weeks, you’ve answered the questions, you’ve tuned in religiously, and you’ve probably refreshed your phone a hundred times hoping for that call.

Some of you even tried to manifest it – writing “I am a millionaire” on your bathroom mirror, carrying a lucky R2 coin in your pocket, or bribing the universe with good karma (don’t think we didn’t notice all the extra “pay it forward” coffee orders lately).

While you’ve been hustling for your chance at R1 million, the East Coast Radio team has been busy living the millionaire lifestyle – strictly for research purposes, of course.

Danny hopped on a private jet, the rest of us dined like royalty, and we all discovered that being rich is, in fact, very nice. We’d love for it to stay this way forever.

But now, it’s time to pass the wealth on to one lucky listener.

Somewhere in South Africa, a millionaire is about to be made

Right now, our randomiser is deep in thought, working its magic, spinning through all the entries, and carefully selecting the person whose life is about to change forever.

Who will it be? A Durban local who’s been dreaming of this moment?

A Joburger ready to ball out?

Someone in Cape Town planning their best sunset yacht party?

Or maybe even a small-town legend from the Free State who’s about to put their town on the map?

One thing is for sure: this person is about to go from budget-conscious to boujee real quick.

More than just a million – it’s a Million & Change

Let’s be real. R1 million is life-changing. It’s not as massive an amount as it used to be, but it’s big enough to alter the entire trajectory of someone’s life.

The winner can pay off debts, invest, travel, start a business, or finally buy that fridge that makes ice cubes in fun shapes.

Here’s the best part, though: they won’t just be changing their life. They’ll also be changing the lives of others by donating R125,000 to a charity of their choice.

This isn’t just a win, it’s a chance to make a real impact.

So… could it be you? The wait is almost over. Stay close to your phone. Make sure your ringer is on.

If an unknown number calls you, DO NOT IGNORE IT (unless you want to miss out on a million bucks and live with that regret forever).

This could be the start of a whole new life. By the end of this week, someone has a chance to reset and start a fresh chapter.

A million rand. A million possibilities.

Good luck, South Africa. We’ll be making history soon.
