KUCHING: A housewife from Sabah became a multi-millionaire by winning RM41.45 million in Supreme Toto 6/58 jackpot lottery on Aug 21.
The 54-year-old lucky winner, when collecting the winnings with her husband and daughter at Sports Toto’s head office in Kuala Lumpur, said she was not aware that she had won the jackpot on Aug 21 as she only checked the ticket using the CheckWin machine at an outlet on Aug 24.
“This great news caused me a few sleepless nights after finding out that I am the winner of the RM41.45 million jackpot.
“As a housewife, playing lotto games is my favourite pastime as I enjoy mixing and matching numbers although I only bet occasionally when I follow my husband to buy numbers,” she said.
The winner said the set of winning numbers (1, 9, 12, 17, 28 & 38) was derived from a combination of some auspicious numbers and the birthdays of her family members.
“I still don’t know what to do with the newfound wealth. I think I will share it with my husband and children,” she added.
By spending only RM2 on a Supreme Toto 6/58 ticket, the winner won a whopping RM41,450,150.65.
