«تذكرة معلّقة» على ثلاجة تُكسب زوجين أستراليين 13 مليون دولار

An ordinary daily routine for a couple from Melbourne, Australia, turned into an extraordinary story after they discovered that a regular lottery ticket stuck to their refrigerator held a prize exceeding 13 million Australian dollars.

Four Winners

The company "The Lott," responsible for organizing the Powerball draws, explained that the last draw had a total value of over 80 million dollars, with the jackpot distributed among four winners, including the couple.

Late Discovery

The couple, who are grandparents living in the upscale suburb of Brighton, did not realize they had won immediately, as they were not registered in "The Lott" members' club, making it difficult for the company to contact them, leaving them unaware of their newfound wealth until they checked the results themselves.

Ticket on the Fridge

The wife described the moment by saying, "I couldn't believe my eyes! The ticket had been hanging on our fridge the whole time," confirming that the number selection was random, but some were linked to family memories like birthdays and anniversaries.

Plans for the Family's Future

After many years of hard work, the couple began to think about investing the amount to help their children and grandchildren, in addition to buying a small house that would provide them with a more stable life. The wife mentioned that she is still hesitant about whether to continue working or retire after this big win.
