(WWJ) There aren't any new billionaires after Monday night's Powerball drawing — but there is a new MILLIONAIRE in Metro Detroit.
The Michigan Lottery has confirmed that someone matched all five white balls, but didn't match the Powerball. That ticket was sold at the CVS on E. Warren Ave., in Grosse Pointe.
The lucky winner should contact the Lottery’s Player Relations division at 844-917-6325 to claim the prize.
It was one of ten tickets to win a $1 million prize, and two people won $2 million prizes. Along with Michigan, the other big winners were in California, Florida, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Montana, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Virginia.
The jackpot now sits at $1.3 billion, which Lottery officials say is the fifth-largest in Powerball history and the ninth-largest among U.S. lottery jackpot games ever. The next Powerball drawing is Wednesday night.
While many people love to dream about what they'd do with a billion dollars — is that kind of money just too much money?
WWJ Newsradio 950's Beth Fisher posed that question to Jake Harris with the Michigan Lottery.
"There are kinda those myths out there, you know, those old tales that you here. From my experience in working with the Lottery for more than a decade I can tell you that I've never heard from a winner coming back and saying that their life had just been ruined by winning a massive amount of money," Harris said.
Harris told Fisher that says their office has been buzzing as the jackpot continues to grow.
