The Australian Lotto winner describes her windfall as “absolutely unbelievable.” She went on to describe the win as “dramatically life-changing.” The best bit about the win is that it will allow her family to “relax a little” as it takes the pressure off them. “We’ve worked so hard all our life and now we might not have to work so hard,” she added.
