Speaker 1 (00:00):
Robin, Kip and Coyote in the morning.

Speaker 2 (00:03):
So across the weekend I met two guys who have
won millions of dollars on lotto. They are a married
couple in their fifties. Let's just call them Peter and David. Okay,
So I said, can I record your story because this
is cracking and they said yep, So this is what happened.

Speaker 1 (00:23):
We're sitting at home on a Saturday night. And said
to me, oh, it's at thirty million dollar a lot
of draw and I was like, oh, well, just just
grab a ticket and like what it's like. We've been
together for close to thirty years and randomly we've just
been buying Lotto tickets over the time, and every time
that there's a big drawer, we buy a ticket. It's

(00:44):
not something that we have done on a regular basis,
so it's not like we've got regular numbers. I jumped
online onto the Lotto app and I bought a ticket.
We wake up on the Sunday morning, but you didn't
even watch the drawer.

Speaker 3 (01:01):
Oh no, you didn't even think about the ticket again.

Speaker 1 (01:04):
No, never, You're going to make people so mad, And
I'm really sorry. It was just a flippant choice thing
that I did on a Saturday night. I opened the
app and all of this confetti fell down in the app.
So I spent one hundred and sixty dollars and forty
five cents and that's the only numbers I could see.
One hundred and sixty dollars and forty five cents. And

(01:26):
I was like, oh, well, that's not a loss. I
pretty much won, but I spent. And then I looked
at the app and I went, hang on, holy, what
what is that? Four point three million dollars? And I
just I couldn't believe it. It was four point three million,
and so many other numbers following that.

Speaker 2 (01:49):
So Monday morning, you are sitting at home together and
you get a cool no.

Speaker 1 (01:54):
We actually at the coffee like a cough shop, and
we were drinking that and the phone rang and we
both looked at it. It's like, holy, this is the call.
And she's like, oh, I can confirm with you that
what you are seeing on the app is real.

Speaker 3 (02:13):
So four point three million dollars? What did you do?
So it's confirmed?

Speaker 1 (02:19):
Then what I fall on my knees and I cry
for a little bit. You don't you don't understand how
life changing this was. I was in a job that
I hated and I was going through the motions every

(02:43):
single day. I hated every living moment of waking up.

Speaker 3 (02:52):
So how did your life change?

Speaker 1 (02:54):
We stopped having to worry, We stopped having to be
concerned about paying the mortgage.

Speaker 3 (03:04):
Did you pay off the house straight away?

Speaker 1 (03:07):
We can say yes to that. It's currently it's offset.

Speaker 3 (03:11):
But yes, you paid off the house?

Speaker 1 (03:12):
Yeah? Yeah? What else did you do for the last
For the last ten months, we've just traveled. We have
just traveled. We have been to Japan, We've been to Canada,
We've been to Indonesia, we went to Europe. We've done
massive amounts of trips around Australia.

Speaker 2 (03:29):
Okay, so first class business class economy.

Speaker 1 (03:32):
Off business economy.

Speaker 4 (03:36):
Well, we're not now going what we need like five stars.
Like that hasn't changed this. We're traveling to catch up
with friends. It's not like we want five stars. We
just want to be comfortable and we're not going to frivolously.

Speaker 1 (03:50):
We're not just.

Speaker 4 (03:51):
Spending money for the sake of spending money. We're just
we're doing it smart.

Speaker 3 (03:55):
So you were smart with your money.

Speaker 1 (03:57):
We were smart with our money beforehand, what we got
was karma.

Speaker 3 (04:04):
Whoo what does that mean?

Speaker 1 (04:08):
It's an interesting question, isn't it. We've been together for
thirty years. From the very second that we got together,
we gave. We gave to his family, we gave to
my family. We supported so many different people in our family.

(04:34):
But we put so much out into the universe. We
gave so much money to so many people to ensure
that they had food on the table, they could pay
an electricity bill, they could pay their phone bill, they
could pay their car payment. And only last week, and

(04:55):
yet we're now in a really good position. Really sorry,
I gave somebody five thousand dollars because.

Speaker 2 (05:06):
She was in a situation you could so will that
money last you forever?

Speaker 1 (05:10):
Yes?

Speaker 3 (05:12):
And because you've planned it that way. Because this is
the other thing. People go, oh my god.

Speaker 2 (05:16):
If I won four million dollars, I do this, and
I do this. But actually, if it gives you the
freedom to live the life you want to live, you.

Speaker 3 (05:26):
Have to plan.

Speaker 1 (05:27):
You need to be very sensible about it. We are
six days away from twelve months. We still have the
exact same amount of money, and it's because we understand
the principles of the dollar.

Speaker 3 (05:42):
So you haven't.

Speaker 2 (05:43):
You've just traveled on the interest, but you have still
got the principal amount, which will keep you for the rest.

Speaker 1 (05:49):
Of your life, and it will grow because of the
company that we've partnered with to get us to where
we are.

Speaker 3 (05:59):
So who did you tell?

Speaker 1 (06:01):
Not many people?

Speaker 3 (06:03):
How many people know?

Speaker 1 (06:04):
Now eleven? We had to tell people in our circle
because they would have something had happened, recognize changes. His
twin brother and sister in law live four hundred meters
away from us, so they would have known.

Speaker 2 (06:22):
So did anyone's relationship with you change because of the money.

Speaker 4 (06:26):
There's been no significant change. I don't think friendship nobody's
been you for winning or wanting money or wanting money.

Speaker 1 (06:38):
Nobody's no.

Speaker 4 (06:39):
But like the people that we know and love, we've
sort of been able to. Yeah, and it's not we
haven't told that many people, not for the sake of
trying to hide it. But it's just this day and age,
you just need to be I like to be discreet
at the best of times, so it's just happen that way.

Speaker 2 (07:01):
So, I mean, this is random, but everyone wants anyone
who plays lotto wants to win it.

Speaker 3 (07:06):
So if you had advice, what would you say.

Speaker 1 (07:11):
Don't expect it's going to happen, but if it does,
be sensible.

Speaker 3 (07:17):
And what does that mean. Take a breath.

Speaker 1 (07:19):
Oh, absolutely, absolutely take a breath. Like it was, it
was all consuming at the beginning.

Speaker 4 (07:27):
If you win a significant amount of money, you need
to find a financial advisor that is going to lead
you in the right direction because you want it to last.

Speaker 1 (07:36):
You don't.

Speaker 4 (07:37):
This is going to changes your future if you do
it right. It allows you do things you weren't going
to be able to do. So stop, like pause, think
about it, and then find somebody that's going to lead
you in the right direction because it can all go wrong.

Speaker 1 (07:53):
And if it's.

Speaker 4 (07:55):
A singing of money, it's going to change your life
if you do it correctly. And it has us because
we got the right advice from the right people that said, hey,
this is what you need to do, and it set
us up for life. Not for the next two years, No,
it's for life. It's forever. Will you ever work again?

Speaker 1 (08:14):
Hell no. Robin Kith and Coyotes in the morning
