$93.4M Winner Comes Forward!
A master sergeant assigned to the 58th Training Squadron at Kirtland Air Force Base in Albuquerque, New Mexico has claimed a $93.4 million Powerball jackpot. John San Cartier correctly matched all six numbers drawn on August 10. San chose the $52.2 million lump-sum option. After federal withholding taxes of 25 percent and state withholding taxes of six percent, he will receive a one-time wire transfer of approximately $36 million. The winning numbers were 13

Damn from 93 Million to only getting 36 million :-x

KMR,

Lots of taxes, but I think I could possibly handle 36 mill. Boy I could expand in realestate, investments, etc :)

I agree. I would have taken the payments for the 93.3 million And paid all taxes so I could take home like 80million over the years and start a business.

so that way I don't blow it all ;-)

No way, take the lump sum. The US dollar will be devalued long before that 20 or 40 years is up or however long it takes.

Besides, if you put 36million in an IRA and invest it right, you can have 90 million well within 5 years. Better deal if you ask me.

Man... I drove 30 minutes south today into Oregon to buy powerball tickets too! I only matched a total of 3 numbers and they were all on different lines. :(

Haha, I am on my way to Idaho from CA and was going to stop in Oregon and buy a ticket but was tired and stopped in Nevada instead. Haven't made it to Oregon yet let alone Idaho. Darn it. Well, at least I won $50 in slots. Probably more than my ticket would have won.

Damn.. that dude is set for life, he can count his lucky stars

oh man even $36mil is hella lot money, wouldnt mind that :upsidedow

lucky fucker

Damn it, should have been me. : )

Earning your own money is more fun

damn thats an asston of cash

I'd build a car collection to go up against Marc De.

i won $3 :(
that much money would be crazy to have. im jealous!

That was an old drawing.

The person from Oregon is getting around $164 million if they take the lump sum, from what I understand.

Lucky bastard, either way.

Exactly, with proper management and investing, the lump sum is always best in the long term.

And here in Canada a lump sum is tax free! :thumbsup Unfortunately, our jackpots are nowhere near the size the US gets :(

What a lucky son of a bitch!

must be nice, WOW that's a lot of $$$

thats a lot of money

damn man thats rough, i think i might have to go with the payout over time, and invest what i could out of each payment for the first year or so and let that draw interest

Did you guys hear about the 90-year old woman who won the lottery a couple of years ago? The state she's in won't LET HER receive a lump sum! She's like, I REALLY NEED THAT MONEY TO GIVE TO MY FAMILY AND TO BUY THINGS I WANT BEFORE I DIE! they were like, well we'll give it to whoever you leave it to in a will. She's like, fuck that, I want my money now! LOL! Apparently she wanted to take some really expensive trips and buy a lot of sh*t before she dies.

I say give the woman the money.

As for the 340 million, lucky bastards!

It's not Boneprone, but Boneprone fucked her :D
