What would you do with a million dollars? Jet off to the other side of the world, build your dream home, give it all to charity — these are just a few of the options available to you if you won Surf Prize Draw 201.
This prize is truly one like no other! This unique lottery draw is giving you a shot at winning 1 million dollars’ worth of gold. What type of adventures would you embark on if you won this much money?
Winner’s Choice
Now, of course, you can do literally anything with 1 million dollar’s worth of gold in hand. The first step is to cash it in, that is unless you’re excited about the prospect of keeping it as gold.
We’re just here to give you some ideas of what you can do with that money to put it to best use. The options are endless! You can do anything from buying a jet plane to starting an investment fund, and everything in between.;
Buy A Home
Have you been scrimping and saving to get together enough money for a home deposit? Perhaps you’ve been dreaming of buying your first home or building your own unique abode. If the 1 million dollars was all yours, you would be able to turn these dreams into a reality.;
Get a home built by the beach with fantastic sparkling sea views. Install a saltwater pool so you can jump in to cool off whenever you want! Create a tropical landscaped backyard and sit poolside sipping cocktails to turn every day into a holiday. Whether this is just your holiday home or a full-time residence, you will love having your own tropical paradise away from it all.
Or maybe you’re more of a city dweller and can’t imagine anything better than purchasing a city apartment to call your own. Find one with an extra bedroom to turn into your home office for those days when you need to get work finished from home.
That’s what is so fantastic about this prize — you can use it to create the exact lifestyle you want.
Education
Many people find themselves stuck in a 9 — 5 job they aren’t passionate about. Is there a career path that you’ve always wished you had chosen instead? It’s never too late to start again. Invest in yourself by using the prize money to spend on going back to study. Whether you wished you were a personal trainer, a doctor, or a zoologist, you can head off to study the relevant qualification.;
Winning this money could be a fantastic motivator to change your life and start the career you’ve always wanted. Don’t let finances hold you back from doing what you love any longer.
Travel
Surely the lucky prize winner is going to celebrate with a trip of some kind! Maybe you’re a local traveller who loves getting out into the countryside and exploring the many landscapes Australia has to offer. You could purchase a decked-out campervan with all of the comforts of home and jet around in it, going wherever you like! Take the ultimate cross-country road trip, visiting all sorts of attractions along the way. Start by checking out the Daintree, then slowly make your way down to the Sunshine Coast, stopping and taking in all the stunning scenery on the way. Then head over to Uluru to check out the magnificent rock formation.
Maybe you’re more of a world traveller. You have plenty of time to plan the ultimate trip for next year. Head off to the refreshing beaches of Bali or go further afield to explore the history of Europe. Visit the beaches of Greece, the art in Paris, or the chocolate shops in Belgium. You don’t have to choose just one location when you’ve got this much prize money to burn!
Invest
If you’re more of a saver than a spender, you might be interested in any investment opportunities that come your way. Perhaps you’ve been drawn towards buying an investment property for a while now but haven’t had the means to do it yet. This prize could offer you the chance to buy a home and become a landlord.
Another option is to put some money into an investment portfolio and have fun learning about the share market. You can watch your money grow and save it up for your children’s’ future or for when there is something that you really want.
Buy A Boat
Anyone who loves heading out for a morning of fishing at the weekend will surely leap at the opportunity to buy a boat. With this much money, you will be able to purchase a small fishing vessel, a top-of-the-line fishing rod, and everything else you could need for days spent out on the water. Perhaps you’ll even find a boat you can take out for days at a time, perfect for when you need a getaway with the family.;
Ideally, you already live by water. If you don’t, this prize would afford you more than enough money to make the move to a more ideal boating location.;
Brand New Car
Most people have never had the experience of buying a car brand new. That could be all about to change for you! You could stroll into a Lamborghini dealership and zoom out in your brand new ride. Go for weekend drives soaring down the open road with the wind in your hair and no destination in mind.
If you’re a more practical person, you may just be excited at the thought of getting a car that can fit the whole family. Look for a minivan or other type of people mover that will fit everyone in and reliably get you from A to B.
Classic car aficionados may be able to finally afford their dream project — refurbishing a vintage car themselves. This is the ultimate labour of love for many people and can be more rewarding than just going out and buying a new car.
Whatever your preferred mode of transport, you could make it happen if you won the top prize in this draw.

Help the Community
If you like to give back to charity, this draw is one way to do it. The funds raised by this draw go towards a good cause — the Surf Lifesaving Foundation. They have been around for more than a hundred years now, saving lives out in the water.
They cover most of the country, patrolling beaches, and helping out people when they get into trouble in the sea. Whether you’re a swimmer, surfer, or child, they are there to pull you out of a tricky situation. Each year they save many people this way by getting there in time.
Unfortunately though, they can’t do this without a bit of extra help. While most of the lifesavers do this on a voluntary basis, there are numerous costs associated with the patrols. Each club’s summer patrol costs around $91,000 to set up, and there are 313 clubs!
Support the crucial work of the Surf Lifesaving Foundation while giving yourself the opportunity to win this massive prize. Enter Surf Prize Draw 201 to get the chance to help out and win big.
Grab your tickets now before they all disappear. Then just check on the day of the draw, Tuesday 20 October 2020, to see if you are the lucky winner!
