Ballpark calculations . . around $590,000 balance after 35% federal and 6% Kentucky taxes . . invested in VWEAX would provide around $2,800 before-tax monthly dividends.

You never have to work again either. It just depends on what you want the rest of your life to be like. If she nets 650k and never works again she'll be lucky to scrape by on a modest income and not run out of money long before she dies. OTOH, if she works for a living and keeps it invested she could guarantee an early and comfortable retirement.

I hope she gets a degree and maybe a post college degree as well. It is not enough to live on but she could buy her first home and invest the rest. Retire by 40.

Due to HIPPAA I can't say too much about this, but will ask one family @ work if they are related!

Congratulations just the same, I think it is about 670K after all the taxes. Seems like she has her head in the right direction and not blowing it all.

18-year-old wins $1M Powerball prize

Lottery Post — Sat, 04 Feb 2017 15:57:28 GMT

An 18-year-old Kentucky woman has won $1 million from Wednesday night's Powerball drawing.

The computer-generated quick pick ticket chose 22 as her Powerball number, but 10 is what was drawn for the $206 million jackpot.

Herrera, who was in Somerset visiting her father, says she doesn't have much experience playing the lottery.
