The identity of the winner has not been revealed but he was overjoyed when he received a phone call from Australian Lottery organizers, TattsLotto, informing him he'd won $1,013,557.14.
"When you’ve worked hard your whole life and struggled from time-to-time, it's hard to believe that this could happen," he stated. "I had about a dozen cups of tea to celebrate after checking those numbers."
He has not made a final decision on how he will spend his winnings, but the tea-loving winner said he likes animals and has always dreamed of owning some land so he is considering buying a hobby farm.
