Winning a lottery is a miracle for most people, mainly because it’s really rare. However, has anyone ever wondered what they’d do if they won the lottery? Well, this person plans to retire!

This local hawker from Johor has been trying his luck for years. However, his persistence has finally paid off. He recently managed to nab the RM3 million jackpot! And the first thing he’s going to do is retire.

Local gambling company Big Sweep (大彩) announced their latest winner a few days ago. Apparently, a hawker from Johor hit the jackpot with his lottery number 7201305. He went to collect his prize money of RM3 million from the company’s office. Big Sweep shared that the hawker has often bought lottery tickets and likes playing number games.

Apparently, the hawker has been buying lottery tickets consistently, but for him, it’s simply habitual fun. Although, he did admit that he saw it as an opportunity to change the cards life has dealt him. He’s never been antsy about checking the numbers after buying the tickets. However, this time, the ticket seller urged him to do so via the app, and he got a very pleasant surprise. Not only did he manage to win the lottery, he landed the first prize!

The hawker shared that he has always hoped he would be the next winner and this was a dream come true. However, he doesn’t have any plans for the money yet. His only real plan is to retire from his job. “Life won’t change because (I) won the lottery,” he reportedly said. “(My) daily life will be the same as before.”

Well, it certainly sounds like a dream come true! We’re certain this hawker will find other ways to occupy himself and wish him all the best on his retirement.
