The Kansas Lottery kicked off the new year with a bang this week, as not only was the winning Holiday Millionaire Raffle number announced, but the winner of the $92 million Powerball Jackpot hit in Kansas on November 19 has come forward to claim their prize as well! The winner has chosen to take the lump sum payment of just over $47 million.
The Johnson County resident, who has chosen to remain anonymous, says they waited until the new year to claim their prize and have been working with a financial advisor for several weeks preparing for their new wealth.
The winner says they plan to donate some of the winnings to some charities that they have worked with in the past, as well as set aside some for family, and take a long overdue trip to Europe and Central America and possibly investing in a vacation home in the mountains. The winning ticket was sold at Cosentino’s Price Chopper on 119th Street in Overland Park.
