The Summit Australia 2023 winner Isaac Compton has revealed his exciting plans for how he will spend his share of $490,000 in prize money.
In the June 4 finale, Isaac pocketed a whopping $250,000, while runner-up Brooke Kilowsky nabbed $150,000, and Lulu Hawton received $90,000.
Now, the 36-year-old has dished on what he intends to spend that eye-watering amount of cash on.
Chatting to Yahoo! Lifestyle, Isaac said he “promised” his mother a “kitchen that she’s been talking about for four or five years”.
“So I’m going to do that and help my dad out too,” he confessed.
“I think I’m going to do a little bit of travel and go explore the world and Australia, and I’ll most likely invest the money into a house or something like that.”
Isaac Compton says it’s ‘surreal’ he won The Summit
The self-described “struggling musician” from Dubbo added that it’s “surreal” that he won the intense adventure competition.
“We never had money growing up,” he said. “Money is a rare thing to really have and I think just knowing that there’s got to be that financial stability is a sense of relief.”
Isaac added that while watching the finale, he “became really emotional again”.
“A bunch of us from the show got together down in Melbourne and watched the last episode and those emotions came back of that feeling of what it was like being there,” he explained.
“This show changed my life.”
Now that he’s won The Summit, the inaugural winner said he now wants to take on Australian Survivor.
“Give me a crack at Survivor, I want a shot at it!” he exclaims. “I would love to have a turn playing Survivor.
“What I took away from The Summit was, it sounds so cliché, but if you put your mind to something, you can literally do anything, because your mind gives up before your body does. Your body can be pushed to some extreme limits.”
