Ten female dentists from New Zealand have scooped Saturday’s $30 million Lotto jackpot. The dental professionals who are in their 50s and 60s received 10 percent each; i.e., $3 million; of the winnings. One winner, Tina from Taupō, said that the real excitement of the jackpot win was sharing the news with the others.

The group had previously scooped $12,000, but Tina believed that they would hit a bigger jackpot one day. But she did not think of $30 million. “It all started about five years ago down in Dunedin. Our lives have taken different directions since then, and we are spread around the country — so this win is just a fabulous excuse to get back together,” she expressed.

Tina who set up a syndicate in Deep South did not want her last name to be published. She bought 10-week blocks of tickets, and everyone has contributed $20 towards that. She thinks that the lives have taken different paths since the jackpot win. It allowed them to get back together.
