Self-employed man wins life-changing R8.4m Lotto jackpot
From R10 to R8.4m – the incredible March 5 Lotto jackpot has been claimed by a self-employed man.
The National Lottery has been creating millionaires almost every week lately, and this time, it’s a hardworking entrepreneur who’s struck gold.
A self-employed South African has officially claimed his massive R8.4 million jackpot from the March 5 draw. And guess what? His winning ticket was a simple R10 Quick Pick.
Talk about the best 10 bucks ever spent.
When he found out about his life-changing win, his first reaction wasn’t to celebrate – he prayed.
“I’ve never won such a large amount of money before. I’m very excited to better my life and that of my family,” he shared with Ithuba National Lottery.
So, what’s next for our newest millionaire? Business first. He plans to invest his winnings into expanding his venture and securing a strong financial future for his loved ones. His first purchase will be a vehicle to help grow his business.
It’s not just about work though. This win also unlocks a long-time dream for him. As a passionate soccer fan, he’s always been too busy running his business to attend live matches. That’s finally changing.
“This incredible win will not only allow me to enjoy simple pleasures, but also the ones I truly cherish, like attending soccer matches. Weekends are the busiest time for my business, so I haven’t been able to watch the games. Now, I can treat myself to some well-deserved time off to catch the action on the field.”
