A local man from Nundah has received the ultimate birthday gift in the form of a $200,000 windfall that will fund a long-awaited medical procedure.
The local man received the news of his luck through a phone call on Friday, 13 February 2026. The timing was particularly special as the announcement coincided exactly with his birthday. The North Brisbane resident had purchased an entry into the Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot 1767, which resulted in a first-place win of $200,000. Upon hearing the news, the winner expressed total shock and noted that his heart was racing from the excitement.
He mentioned that he had originally intended to have a very quiet evening at home, but the unexpected financial boost meant those plans would likely change to something more celebratory.
While many might look toward luxury cars or overseas holidays, this winner has a very specific and practical goal for his windfall. He shared that he has wanted to undergo a major dental procedure for a long time but had been held back by the potential expense. With the $200,000 now secured, he intends to finally book the work to get a new set of teeth.
He explained that being able to afford the dental work without any financial stress was a dream come true. The man described the situation as a beautiful way to mark his birthday and expressed deep gratitude for the win.
