R140-million? That would kill a few fires and maybe even fill up your petrol tank… and that’s what is for grabs in Friday’s, August 3, Powerball lotto.
It is the biggest jackpot ever in the lotto’s 18-year history.
In the Powerball Plus draw on Tuesday night, there was a winning ticket for just over R5.5-million. The National Lottery said the winner is male and came forward on Wednesday morning.
“We know that the winning ticket was bought at KwikSpar Rensburg in Heidelberg for R30 using a Quick Pick selection method,” said spokesperson Naledi Masopha.
All winners receive financial advice and trauma counselling at no cost from the National Lottery.
Meanwhile, a record number of tickets are expected to be bought as the R140-million prize money stands to be won.
So, start dreaming how you will spend that….
