A single father in Morayfield has secured a steady $20,000 monthly income for the next two decades, turning an ordinary workday into a life-changing moment and offering new stability for his young son.
The Moreton Bay resident held the only top-winning entry in a national draw, giving him a total prize of $4.8 million paid in monthly instalments over 20 years.
The win came as a surprise while he was at work, where he had been balancing two jobs to support his child. The father reacted with shock and excitement upon receiving the phone call, saying he had not even checked his numbers the night before.
He shared that his priority is his son, explaining that his long hours and multiple jobs had always been driven by a desire to provide a better future. With the new income, he plans to focus on setting up his child’s life and easing the financial pressure he had been carrying.
The winning entry was a 25-game QuickPick purchased through an official digital platform. The numbers drawn were 31, 37, 25, 15, 27, 14 and 10, with supplementary numbers 35 and 3.
Across the country, this was the only top-tier winning entry in that draw. It also marked one of several major wins recorded so far this financial year.
For this Morayfield father, however, the impact is immediate and personal. It’s a shift from long working hours to a more secure future centred on his child.
