“I lost my job in 2019 and started doing odd jobs to make ends meet. My biggest concern was taking care of my children, ”he said.
“A few weeks ago, the mother of my first child threatened to take me to child support court because she was not happy with the money I was contributing to raising our son. This frustrated me because I was really giving everything I could. “
The man has decided to invest most of his earnings, with the education of his children being his top priority. He told Ithuba that he plans to buy a house where his children can live comfortably.
He also said that he wanted to spend part of his earnings to help the homeless in East London as part of the pay.
“I am honored that I will finally be able to do so much more than give an R5 coin to the homeless,” he said.
Ithuba spokesman Busisiwe Msizi said the man had received trauma counseling and financial counseling, which was offered to all winners of R50,000 or more.
“He spent a lot of time with the financial advisor, more than most of our winners usually spend. The response we received was that he had many questions and wanted to fully understand the magnitude of his earnings and how he could preserve his newfound wealth, “he said.
