US: 3 win the monstrous lottery

Well, a billionaire was born - there are winners in the historical lottery in the United States, so the American lottery office announced. The first winning ticket was purchased at the Chino Hills, California branch. Another two in Los Angeles and Tennessee.

The draw, which won worldwide attention, took place during the night. Winning numbers were: 8-27-34-4-19 and strong number is 10. It should be noted that the chance of winning was one of 292 million. Just to understand, the chances of winning in Israel are one of 16 million - 18 times higher than the US, but the prize is 100 times higher in relation to the Israel Prize.

As stated, by morning it was clear that one of the residents of California managed to beat the odds and scoop the prize worth $ 1.5 billion. If the lucky winner will seek to get the sume in a single payment, he will have to settle for payment of 930 million dollars "only". If he asks for the full amount it will be distributed in installments over 29 years - which of course still makes it so he would not have to worry about his living, until the end of his life. But as it turns out the winner will share the prize with other winners.

As recalled, as reported in Behadrey Haredim, the last day of the storm around the big raffle, which heads the news agenda in the United States, which was held for the astronomical sum of a billion and a half dollars, did not skip over the haredi sector. The Haredi street spoke about the dream to earn a huge sum easily, and it echoed in haredi neighborhoods in America. In recent days, many haredim asked where and how one can participate in the lottery here in Israel.

Usually the first lottery prize of the US "Powerball" is 40 million, but after a series of lotteries in which no one won, the prize went to pool. So far, it was the highest amount of the lottery, a total of $ 640 million which together three tickets won on March 30, 2012, as part of Powerball.
