Man buys two winning lottery tickets for $33M payout

(CNN)An Australian man scored a 46.6 million Australian dollar ($33.15 million) lottery windfall — after buying two tickets with the same numbers.

The blue-collar worker from Melbourne, whose name has not been disclosed, had been playing those numbers for 30 years, according to an Oz Lotto statement.
He discovered his double win Tuesday, after finishing work for the night. “Am I seeing things?” he said on receiving the news, according to the statement. “I can’t believe it.”
