An Adelaide man is walking straight out of work never to return again after this morning discovering he won more than $1.6 million in the weekend’s Saturday X Lotto draw. 

The South Australian player held one of the 12 division one winning entries across Australia in Saturday Lotto draw 3995, drawn Saturday 2 November 2019. Each entry won a division one prize of $1,666,666.67. 

This morning we broke the news to the winner, who had no idea he’d won division one. 

“Oh sh**,” he screamed. 

“You are kidding me!

“I can’t even think at the moment. I can’t think straight. 

“Oh my god. I am shaking! 

“I was not expecting this. 

“This is amazing. I am so overwhelmed.” 

When asked how he planned to enjoy his prize, the newly minted millionaire said his prize would set him up for a happy retirement. 

“I am at work now, but I am going to go straight home,” he said. 

“I am never coming back to work again. I am retiring. 

“I am so excited to just enjoy my retirement and spend a lot of time travelling. 

“This completely changes my life.” 

The thrilled player, who wishes to remain anonymous, purchased his 36-game QuickPick entry online at thelott.com – Australia’s official lotteries.
