Brother & Sister Split Powerball Prize

By Francene Marie August 9th
brother and sister, Chanthavong and Daravone Boulany of Maiden, play Powerball together and, after winning a $100,000 prize in the July 24 drawing, they agreed to split the winnings.

Lottery players are even using Gematria calculators to pick luck numbers. With all the buzz around striking it rich playing, the excitement is constantly spreading from county to county. A brother and sister, Chanthavong and Daravone Boulany of Maiden seem to always play Powerball together. It paid off because after winning a $100,000 prize in the July 24 drawing, they agreed to split the winnings. They bought their lucky $3 Power Play ticket from Hop In on Island Ford Road in Maiden, North Carolina. The ticket matched the numbers on four white balls and the red Powerball to win $50,000. The prize doubled to $100,000 when the 2X multiplier hit.

They claimed the prize Friday at the lottery headquarters in Raliegh, and after splitting the prize, they each received $50,000 and, after required federal and state tax withholdings, they each took home $35,625. Congratulations to them for using teamwork to claim their riches. They have big plans to use their share of the winnings to pay for school. We all want to pay off student debt because of the mental stress it creates. The jackpot is reaching some big numbers, but remember that the odds of winning a Powerball jackpot are 1 in 292 million.

Powerball is one of six lottery games in North Carolina where players have the option of buying tickets at a retail location or with Online Play through the lottery’s website or the NC Lottery Official Mobile App.

Ticket sales from draw games like Powerball make it possible for the lottery to raise $2.5 million a day on average for education. Catawba County received $40 million in state grants, with money raised by the lottery, to help with school construction.
