Money, money, money, money.

Congrats to the Hill Family of Missouri in winning half of the $587.5 million jackpot in Powerball. A cool 136 million dollars after taxes.

The Hill Family:

Missouri family Powerball winners: (http://video.today.msnbc.msn.com/today/50037581/#50037581)

Each ticket holder is entitled to $294 million, which they can receive in a lump-sum cash payout or in annual payouts over 30 years. Cindy Hill said they'll opt for the lump-sum payout, which totals about $192 million before taxes.

The Powerball winner in Arizona hasn't claimed his/her half of the jackpot. 180 days to claim their share of the pot.

My aunt in Arizona said she didn't win the Powerball. Oh, well. :o

I think you can apply and get a portion back, but not all.

you have to prove you lost enough money to reclaim all back. I know this because i have applied for tax refund. In this case, i dont think you can ever lose 150 mill, therefore they will keep the tax
