The fortunate Tasmanian man who claimed the entire division one prize earlier this week said he planned to retire immediately, purchase a dream home with his partner and support his family.
'Oh, this is brilliant, absolutely brilliant … I've had a (rough) couple of years,' he said.
'I am just getting back on my feet, and I still have a mortgage when everyone else (my age) is about to retire. I have been saying I will have to work until I am 70, but not now.'
The luckiest numbers drawn in Powerball are 9, 7, 17, 11, 3, 23 and 2 and the least drawn numbers are 33, 31, 29, 15, 13, 26 and 8. Picture: NewsWire / Damian Shaw
