What the Lottery Winners Plan After the Jackpot

At the beginning of the week, on Monday, June 30, it was payday: The Austrian Lotteries transferred exactly 5,210,747 euros to the winners' account. "Even though we knew four weeks ago that we were Lotto millionaires, we were breathless when we saw the bank statement with so many digits before the comma," reported the newly minted millionaire.

Lotto Winners Initially Believed They Won a Five

On June 1, after the Lotto draw, the couple was breathless when the wife told her husband about a winning five, and he then checked the receipt for the winning query on lotterien.at. They discovered that the sixth number also matched the draw result. Confirmation from the customer service center of the Austrian Lotteries dispelled the last doubts.

The two Lotto winners want to "emigrate," "but within the country's borders. We know a beautiful spot within Austria where we really like it," the Styrian couple says, but they do not reveal where this place is. There, since they recently retired, they want to buy a senior-friendly house. Additionally, the purchase contract for a new car has already been signed, and the children and grandchildren will also receive a share of the 5 million.

"We have never been badly off," reveals the couple, who have always been very frugal, "now we can be a bit more relaxed with money." And the two have a large circle of acquaintances spanning several European countries: "We can now nurture these friendships more intensively than before and will pay many visits in the coming years."
