A security guard from Sabah turned his life around after winning RM13.4 million in the Toto 4D Jackpot 1 game on 2 March
The 53-year-old man, who has been working as a security guard for over 20 years, said he plans to live off the interest from the windfall.
According to the New Straits Times, he bought the winning numbers, 1203 and 1227, based on his birth date and car registration number.
"I bought these two numbers for only RM2.60 and it made me rich.
"I thought I might still continue to work until my retirement, but after looking at the interest alone if I deposit the winnings, I will no longer need to work," he said.
The lucky punter said his wife couldn't hold back tears when he shared the good news, as they can now fulfil their dream of building a spacious house to accommodate their entire family, including siblings
"Being an indigenous Sabahan, I can now make a difference for my people. I want to go back and develop my village," said the millionaire.
The man won RM13,403,860.25 out of the total jackpot of RM14,962,901.80.
The remaining jackpot amount of RM1,559,041.55 was divided among two i-System winners from Sabah and Kuala Lumpur, reported The Borneo Post.
