Two of those tickets were sold in New York, with three others coming from Florida, Maryland and New Jersey. Surprising Factįive tickets in Friday’s drawing matched all five white balls in the Mega Millions but didn’t match the gold ball number-still enough for a second-place $1 million prize. Last September, two people claimed a $1.337 billion Mega Millions jackpot in Illinois, splitting a $780.5 million pre-tax cash lump-sum. The second biggest came in October 2018 ($1.537 billion)-a Mega Millions jackpot that was claimed by just one person.
That’s how high the Powerball jackpot reached in November-the biggest of all time-with one winner getting $628 million in a cash lump sum after federal taxes. The winner would then face a mandatory 24% federal tax withholding to the IRS, reducing the prize money to $432.2 million, plus a federal marginal rate as high as 37%, which would cut it to as low as $358.3 million, if the winner has no additional income, dependents or tax deductions including charitable contributions.
