No jackpot winners after Saturday’s Powerball drawing, prize jumps to an estimated $650 million

Yes, that's correct. There were no jackpot winners after Saturday's Powerball drawing, so the prize has now jumped to an estimated $650 million for the next drawing on Monday, July 10, 2023. This is the ninth-largest Powerball jackpot in history.

The winning numbers for Saturday's drawing were 7, 23, 24, 32, 43, and the Powerball was 18. Three tickets matched all five white balls to win $1 million each. The tickets were sold in California, Colorado, and Illinois.

The next Powerball drawing will be held at 10:59 pm ET on Monday, July 10, 2023. You can purchase tickets online, at participating retailers, or by calling the lottery hotline. The cost of a ticket is $2.

The winner of the jackpot can choose to receive the money in a lump sum payment of $328.3 million or in 30 annual payments of $21.9 million.

After federal taxes, the winner of the lump sum payment would take home about $254.7 million. The winner of the annuity payments would take home about $203.4 million over the course of 30 years.

Of course, the amount of taxes the winner owes will depend on their individual circumstances. For example, if the winner lives in a state with a high income tax rate, they will owe more in taxes.

The Powerball jackpot is taxed as ordinary income, which means the winner will owe federal income tax at their marginal tax rate. For most people, this will be 24%. However, if the winner's income is very high, they could owe up to 37% in federal income tax.

The winner may also owe state income tax on the jackpot. The amount of state income tax owed will depend on the state where the winning ticket was purchased. Some states, such as Florida and Texas, do not have an income tax, so the winner would not owe any state income tax. However, other states, such as California and New York, have high income taxes, so the winner could owe a significant amount of state income tax.

Overall, the amount of taxes the winner of the Powerball jackpot owes will depend on their individual circumstances. However, even after taxes, the winner will still be very wealthy.
