Dream Big 

For some supporters, the idea of winning $800K sparks visions of indulgent and extraordinary adventures. 

Take Sharon’s story, for example. One supporter confided that his first move would be buying an island. “He said he’d send a postcard from his island and email his boss to quit work on the spot!” Sharon says with a laugh. Our fact checkers reckon islands can start from a bargain $385,000

Another supporter, as mentioned by fellow team member Jen, shared their dream of embarking on a luxurious cruise around the world. Just imagine soaking in sunsets from the deck of a grand ship while exploring exotic destinations. With $800K, this isn’t just a fantasy; it’s a ticket to unparalleled freedom and exploration. 

Whether it’s waking up in a beachfront villa or sailing into new horizons, these stories remind us that dreams, no matter how grand, are within reach.

Family First 

While the allure of luxury is undeniable, many supporters have shared plans centred on family and a sense of home. 

Kate recounts a touching conversation with a supporter who’s already building a house in the Philippines for their family. With $800K, the dream of splitting their time six months in Australia and six months abroad could become a seamless reality. This story shows how financial freedom can bring families closer, provide comfort, and create lasting connections. 

Jen also shared another heartwarming sentiment of a supporter planning to use her winnings on an unforgettable wedding for her daughter. It’s not just money, it’s a stepping stone to a family celebration full of joy, love, and togetherness. 

For many, winning isn’t about extravagance. It’s about securing a brighter future and creating moments that matter most with the people they love.

Giving Back 

Beyond personal and family dreams, some supporters plan to use their winnings to make a difference in the lives of others. 

One supporter told Jen they’d purchase a block of units to help house the homeless. It’s a selfless commitment to improving their community and creating a lasting legacy of generosity. 

For many, being a Deaf Lottery Winner isn’t just about achieving personal goals. It’s also about giving back and uplifting others. That’s a sentiment we see time and again from our incredible supporters, and it’s exactly what makes Deaf Lottery so special.
