Florida is an American state full of millionaires. Recently it welcomed a new addition to its group of rich people: 61-year old Sheryll Goedert. The very lucky managing member of Vacation Life LLC won the Powerball Jackpot of 396.9 million dollars! Goedert is the 13th winner of the Powerball Jackpot in the Sunshine State. The big Jackpot hit took place on January 29, 2020, which is a day she will obviously never forget.
Lump-sum payment
The new millionaire has decided to receive the money in a lump-sum payment. This means that Goedert will get a one-time payment of 276,557,034.09 dollars to be precisely. She bought her ticket at a 7-Eleven store that can be found at 4520 Bonita Beach Road in Bonita Springs. It was a Quick Pick ticket, and the retailer that sold it is very excited as well. No surprise, since he or she will receive a bonus commission of 100.000 dollars for selling the Powerball ticket!
