The last Powerball drawing on Wednesday was possibly the most waited as the jackpot has reached $579 million, the second biggest prize in the lottery history in the US. The prize could reach that amount because there were no winners for the past 16 weeks.
On the Wednesday drawing, there were two matching tickets to win the big jackpot numbers of 5, 23, 16, 22 and 29 with the Powerball number of 6. According to the Powerball lottery officials, the matching tickets were bought in the state of Arizona and Missouri but no further information is given about these two lucky winners. The winners of the enormous jackpot will be announced soon as the results are collected.
Meanwhile, giving comments on the most recent Powerball winners, a lot of lottery winners who got their luck in the previous games said that the new winners of this jackpot should really be careful with the changes they might experience after hitting this big. Some lottery winners such as Sandra Hayes, Donald Lawson, David Gehle, and many other lottery winners said that it is important for the new winners to stick to their first plan and never get carried away by their sudden fame and popularity.
More people will come to the winners trying to take some shares of the money and a lot more will try to cheat and even blackmail. That would be a normal thing to happen to a lottery winner. The same advice comes from those winners that the most important thing is managing the emotion. New cars, women and parties and luxurious life which leads to bankruptcy will be part of the temptation given to someone who has a lot of cash but if the winner is mature and the lottery prize is well-managed then no disasters will follow after lottery winning.
