West Aussie Lotto player banks entire division one prize
One WA Lotto player is starting the weekend $1 million richer after taking a chance on Friday's Millionaire Medley draw. The lucky West Aussie was the only player to match six winning numbers required to snag the division one sum. Division two produced two winners who will be celebrating hauls worth more than $18,400. An additional 98 Aussies will walk away with a handy cash boost of $582.45 each from division three. The winning numbers for draw #4556 were 20, 44, 41, 15, 16 and 43. The supplementary numbers were 42 and 40. Luck in the west comes after three ticketholders from the State managed to bag $1.2m each in Saturday's game. One of those tickets belonged to a retired couple who made the winning purchase from Albany Lottery News and Gifts. After coming forward to claim their prize, the couple revealed they plan to use the cash to splash out on new carpets and curtains. Albany Lottery, News and Gifts owner Cathy Campbell said the winning division one ticket, worth a total $1,228,899 is the second highest cash prize they have ever sold. 'We did a $2.17m one in 2011, but this is the next biggest one after that,' she said. 'It's always exciting selling a winning ticket, even if its only $1000 as people get excited about it.'

Cost-of-living pressures sees Aussies take on a second job
The post-Covid boom in the number of Aussies working multiple jobs continues as higher cost of living pressures means more workers are taking on a second gig. The Australian Bureau of Statistics data shows that in the March quarter there were 963,100 Aussies – or 6.5 per cent of the workforce – who had more than one job. While this is actually down from the previous quarter where 999,500 Australians held multiple jobs, it is still a sharp uptick in workers looking to diversify their incomes compared with the years prior to Covid, where around 5 to 6 per cent of Aussies took on a second gig. Seek senior economist Blair Chapman said the spike in cost-of-living pressures from inflation meant more Australians needed to take on extra work. 'We've really seen cost-of-living, especially for employee households, increase quite a lot over the last couple of years,' he said. 'If you've got a mortgage, those repayments have increased quite a bit over the last couple of years so I suspect people have sought a second job just to reach the higher cost of living recently.' Australians are holding onto their second job despite the overall unemployment rate holding firm in recent months, around the 4.1 per cent mark. The main driving force behind this trend is underemployment meaning workers are getting fewer hours from their primary employer than they'd like. 'We are seeing more people being employed in industries where we tend to see a lot of multiple job holdings,' Mr Chapman said. 'For example, we've seen healthcare and social assistance grow and that is one of the industries where multiple job holdings are most common. 'That comes down to the nature of the work, where you have shift work and one business may not be able to provide all the hours an employee wants so the individual has to work across multiple sites to get the hours they are desiring.' Many of these multiple job holders are Australians aged between 20-24, with women more likely to hold a second role over males. In contrast older Australians aged between 60 to 64 are the least likely to hold a second role. 'When we look at a lot of the multiple job holders, they tend to be younger. Maybe it is a university aged person who can't work full-time but can work nights and weekends,' Mr Chapman said. 'While maybe it is not the same job but for them it is probably good they can work multiple jobs with flexible hours.'
