Troy Moulton, of Sanford, matched the four white balls and the Powerball – 20-31-38-40-49 PB: 21 – in the Sept. 11 drawing to win a $50,000 prize.

 

Thanks to the Powerplay, the prize was multiplied to $100,000.

A couple of years ago that would've been life-changing money. Nowadays, a brand new truck could eat up $100K like it's nothing! Either way, I'm glad Michigan is still hot, and seems to me that we've got a bit of a lucky streak going. If you happen to play and win, just invest in yourself carefully. The internet is filled with stories of how winning the lottery ruined people's lives. Money has a way of changing people and bringing out their inner demons.

I actually saw a lot of that via unemployment believe it or not. And you won't believe what people waste their money on. But as the old saying goes, " A fool and his money will soon part".
