OFW IN SAUDI HIT THE PHP112M LOTTO JACKPOT

MANILA - A Filipino construction worker has been working in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia or "Saudi" on a contractual basis for 10 years now.
Why him? He was also a consistent Lotto bettor, with his wife who would bet for him if he is in KSA, using the combination of 33-35-13-27-05-12 (combinations of his family birthdays).
While on vacation in the Philippines, the 33-year-old OFW personally placed a Php20 bet using the combination at a lotto ticket booth in Cavite – and this time, JACKPOT!
As the sole winner, he takes home the jackpot price of Php111,998,556.00; though he wouldn’t be able to get the whole amount as this is still subject to taxes and fees. Still, the amount is already a big one – in fact, it is big enough for him to consider not going back to Saudi.
The winner is trying to find for business that he can invest this money.
