A very lucky player won the maxi jackpot of the world’s richest lottery: Powerball, available in 45 of the 50 US states. Last July 19, Goddess of Fortune kissed an actress from Los Angeles and won the lottery to snag the jackpot: $1.08 billion, approximately 970 thousand euros. This is the sixth highest jackpot ever in the United States (currently unattainable, 2.04 billion won last November 21). Since the last April 19 removal, no one has been able to catch the right combination: that’s why a jackpot of this size was achieved gradually.
Even the owner of Las Palmitas, the mini-market in the California city where the lucky ticket was sold, rejoices: the man named Nabor Herrera will be entitled to a million-dollar commission, as stipulated in the regulation. “I will use them to invest in other stores and to take my wife and kids on vacation,” the trader told local media.
