R66 Million: Your Shortcut to "I'm Done Working"


Let’s be honest. We weren’t all built to grind until 65. The fantasy of early retirement isn’t just about quitting your job – It’s about reclaiming your time and living life to the fullest.


Retirement Fund gives you that chance. One win, and you could:

Hand in your resignation with a smile (and maybe a little confetti).

Fund your dream home – the one with the wrap-around deck and infinity pool.

Turn "one day" destinations into your personal travel log.

Support causes close to your heart and still have more than enough to live the soft life.

Suddenly, that overused phrase “secure the bag” becomes “secure the beachfront bungalow.”




A payout of up to R66 Million is the answer to unpaid bills, budgeting stress and the fear of not having enough. It’s knowing that your children are covered, your future is secured and your life is yours to live to the fullest. No compromises, just freedom.

So, What Are You Waiting For?
You could keep planning for retirement the traditional way – savings accounts, investments and crossed fingers. Or your retirement dreams could start with a single scratch of a card.

Scratch now on Retirement Fund and you could win payouts of up to R66 Million in seconds.

Game of the Month – Gummy Giga Match 

Love stories usually go something like this: boy meets girl, sparks fly, then comes marriage and then the ups & downs that come with married life. Throw in a sudden, life-changing win and things can get a little MESSY.

Let’s take a deep dive into where big wins lead to big breakups:

Denise Rossi thought she had the perfect escape plan. After 25 years of marriage, she won $1,3 Million (over R25 Million), kept it a secret and then filed for divorce 11 days later. The audacity!

For 2 years, her ex-husband Thomas, went about his life completely unaware that Denise was swimming in cash. However, karma was not about to let her get away that easily. The truth finally came out when a judge ruled that Denise violated asset and fund disclosure laws and handed Thomas a hefty payday. The final ruling? Denise was ordered to pay her ex $67,000 (over R1,2 Million) per month for 20 months. Lesson learned? If you’re going to win big, either be honest or be much sneakier than Denise.




Picture this: you file for divorce, move on with your life and win big BUT your divorce is not finalized. Should your soon-to-be ex get half the winnings?
So, a woman, let’s call her Mrs X wins $15 Million (over R270 Million) while legally separated from Mr X. How did Mr X find out? Picking up your kids in a Bentley is a dead giveaway.
According to Canadian law (home of the X’s), any property acquired during the marriage, including separation, is still considered shared. Mrs X had to cut Mr X a cheque. However, she put his half in a trust. Meaning that he got his share but only under conditions she controlled. Petty or practical? You decide.



In 2022, an anonymous man in China won $30 Million (over R500 Million). Instead of running home to celebrate with his family, he went full-on secret agent mode. He chose to keep it a secret from his wife and child. To claim his prize, he showed up incognito wearing a mascot costume – yes, that’s right.
His reason for keeping the prize a secret is that he is concerned that the sudden wealth would negatively impact their work ethic and future plans.

I don’t know about you, but I can’t help but wonder if my father is secretly a millionaire and has just been ‘teaching me humility’ this whole time. Dad, if you’re reading this, now is a good time to come clean.


So, what would you do if you won big? Keep it a secret? Share the wealth? Or set up a trust just to make a point? Test your luck with over 800 games on LottoStar and you could win up to R75 Million. Who knows? You might just get to find out firsthand how you'd handle a sudden fortune.

Love, Money & Heartbreak

Winning R75 Million isn’t just life-changing, it’s the kind of payout that turns dreams into reality. From ticking off your luxury list to building a lasting legacy, the possibilities are endless.

Here's how you could spend, invest and enjoy LottoStar’s maximum payout.

Picture this – a multimillion-rand mansion, ocean views, a private cinema and an infinity pool. With R75 Million, you could buy a home in an area of your choice. Your dream home could include:

 State-of-the-art automation: control the lights at the push of a button, security and entertainment.

Personal spa: forget about booking spa treatments at crowded spas, your home could be a personal retreat with a sauna, jacuzzi and massage bed.

Wine cellar and tasting room: Stock it up with the finest local and international wines.



With a hefty payout, the world’s most exclusive destinations could be at the tip of your fingertips. You can charter a private jet or yacht or stay in a penthouse at the top floor of the Burj Khalifa. You could turn traveling into a lifestyle, not just an occasional getaway.




Lamborghini, Rolls Royce or Ferrari – you could have all 3. Your garage could be a showroom of your dreams and why not hire a chauffeur too? Every drive would feel like an event.




Increase your fortune by investing in property, stocks or even starting your own business. A smart investment strategy could turn millions into generational wealth.




Jackpot winners use their newfound wealth to make a difference. Whether it’s funding education, donating to charity or setting up a foundation. R75 Million could change not only your life but a number of lives.

Whether you choose to live a life of luxury, smart investments or a mix of both, a payout of R75 million is the ticket to a life most can only dream of. Place your bets on the amazing array of games that LottoStar has to offer. You could win payouts of up to R75 Million.

What Would You Do with R75 Million? 

White sandy beaches, clear blue waters and a cocktail in hand. Sounds like a dream, right? With LottoStar’s Win a Private Island, this could be your reality.

We all need a break from everyday life and what better way to escape than to a tropical paradise where your biggest decision is which bikini to wear? Whether you’re all about luxury or you’re laidback, there’s an island destination with your name on it.

Here are some of the hottest spots that feel like pure paradise:



Bali, Indonesia – The Boho-Chic Getaway


Bali is where relaxation meets adventure. Picture yourself strolling through the lush Ceking rice terraces, enjoying a floating breakfast in a private pool villa, or vibing at a trendy beach club. Whether you’re catching waves in Uluwatu or snapping the perfect Instagram shot at the iconic Bali Swing, you’ll be soaking in the island vibes.



Tulum, Mexico – Instagram’s Favourite Escape


Tulum is where adventure meets luxury. Swim in crystal-clear cenotes, explore ancient Mayan culture or just relax at a trendy beach resort. Sunrise yoga and sunset cocktails, Tulum is the definition of vacation goals.



If you love breathtaking views, amazing food and a little history, Amalfi is the place to be. Picture colorful cliffside villages, delicious Italian pasta, sipping Limoncello and yacht trips to Capri. Amalfi looks like it’s straight out of a postcard.



The Maldives is in a league of its own. Overwater villas, crystal-clear lagoons and the kind of peace that makes you forget the rest of the world exists. Whether you’re into diving, spa days or just pure relaxation, this is the place.



Santorini is all about white-washed buildings, iconic cliffside architecture and the most unreal sunsets. Sip on local wine while overlooking the Aegean Sea, wander through the streets or chill at the Black Sand Beach.

Why dream about an island escape when you could win one? You could with LottoStar’s

Win A Private Island - your island escape awaits 

Winning big is a dream come true for most of us. With a long list of things to buy, places to go and goals to achieve, the possibilities are endless. What if you had the chance to change lives with your fortune? Would you share your winnings to support a cause close to your heart?

For some, generosity is at the top of their winning to-do list. Here are a few inspiring jackpot winners who chose to give back:



Frances Connolly, an Irish winner who scooped £115 million (over R2,6 Billion) in 2019, didn’t just change her own life, she changed the lives of thousands. She and her husband agreed to set aside a yearly portion of their winnings for charity, but Frances didn’t stop there. She established two charitable foundations dedicated to enriching lives in the Northeast community. Her generosity has only grown, proving that winning big means you can give big.

Barbara & Ray – Small Upgrades, Big Impact


After winning £7.6 Million (over R173 Million), Sheffield couple Barbara and Ray could have splurged on lavish lifestyles. Instead, after a few home improvements, a new car, and a cruise, they became local philanthropists. Their most touching contributions? A major hospital donation and covering the living expenses of two World War II veterans. Their generosity even earned them an invitation to Buckingham Palace.



Peter’s Wedding Wheels – Luxury for a Cause

Retired bus driver, Peter, hit the jackpot with £13.5 Million (over R309 Million) and indulged in a fleet of luxury cars, including Bentleys, BMWs and Land Rovers. Instead of keeping them all for himself, he put them to good use. It all started during the COVID-19 pandemic when he heard about a bride struggling to afford a wedding car. Peter stepped in, personally chauffeuring her in his Bentley. Since then, he has continued offering free luxury rides to brides who can’t afford to rent luxury cars.



Anonymous Jackpot Winner – A Heart for Education

A big winner from China, who still works as a scrap collector, won $12 Million (over R220 Million) but kept only 40% for himself. The rest? He funded the education of 20,000 children from poverty-stricken backgrounds. Choosing to remain anonymous, his quiet generosity continues to transform countless lives.

Winning big doesn’t just change your life but it can change the world. If luck is on your side, how would you make a difference? Place your bets on LottoStar today for a chance to win a payout of up to R75 Million! Who knows? You might just be able to support a cause close to your heart.

At LottoStar, giving back is part of our DNA. In our 2025 edition of our May Money Madness competition with Kfm 94.5, we are proud to support 

– an organisation committed to raising awareness about organ donation and making it easier for South Africans to become donors. 

Over 4000 South Africans are currently waiting for life-saving organ transplants. Yet, every year, countless viable organs are buried, simply because only a few people are registered as donors. In fact, less than 0,2% of the population are organ donors – a heartbreaking statistic that Save7 is working tirelessly to change.

The organisation’s name is rooted in its powerful slogan – “You can save 7 lives in just one minute”. That’s how long it takes to register as an organ donor.

After witnessing patients pass away due to a shortage of donors, Stellenbosch medical students founded Save7 to spark change. Since then, the organisation has reached over 2 million people through awareness campaigns, partnerships and incentivised sharing.


However, Save7 goes beyond raising awareness by building systems that streamline the donor-to-transplant process, including a voice-based “time capsule” that allows individuals to record their wish to become a donor, providing clear proof for their families.

Each year, Tygerberg Hospital loses up to 100 transplantable organs because of inadequate preservation facilities. To help change this, Save7 repurposed an unused hospital room into the LifePod – a cutting-edge donor ICU located beside the theatre complex. This incredible achievement was made possible thanks to the generosity of donors and supporters.

Save7 also runs support groups for patients on dialysis or awaiting transplants, ensuring they’re seen, heard and supported while they wait for their second chance at life.


Not only will our May Money Madness competition be a vibe, it will also be supporting a life-changing cause. So, enter, register and bet to be part of something life-changing.
