'Just perfect': Man who lost everything in bushfire snags $1m lottery win
A Queensland man whose uninsured family home was destroyed by bushfire late last year has won $1 million in a lottery that will allow him to rebuild.
Lauren Cooney from The Lott notified him of the win this morning and said he was incredibly emotional."The home wasn't insured, so this prize meant that they would be able to rebuild which initially, they thought they wouldn't be able to," she said.
