Powerball ticket worth $1 million sold in California
LOS ANGELES - Who wants to be a millionaire? As the nation awaits the $92 million Powerball lottery winner, someone in California may be $1 million richer.
According to California Lottery's website late Wednesday night, a ticket with five of the six winning numbers was sold at the Rancho Bernardo Car Wash on Bernardo Center Drive in San Diego. Accoring to Powerball's website, that ticket could be worth up to $1 million.
Below were the winning numbers needed to get the then-jackpot of $76 million in the Nov. 6 drawing, which apparently no one got:
12,17, 37, 58, 62. PB: 4
The drawing for the $92 million jackpot will be held on Saturday, November 9.
HOW MUCH DO YOU WIN AFTER TAXES?
There are 92 million reasons to dream, especially what you would do with the jackpot money. However, one thing all lottery winners have to take into account is the fact that their prizes will be taxed.
So how much do you really get after taxes?
It depends on a couple of factors: do you have to pay state taxes where you live? Will you take the lump sum payment or the annuity payout?
According to Powerball's website, those electing to take the annuity option get one immediate payment followed by 29 annual payments.
