Second half of nearly $1.8 billion Powerball jackpot claimed in Texas<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tIN MISSOURI HAS MADE HISTORY. WE\u2019VE LEARNED IT WAS JUST SOLD IN SAINT LOUIS. IT\u2019S ONE OF JUST TWO WINNING TICKETS TO MATCH ALL SIX NUMBERS IN SATURDAY NIGHT\u2019S RECORD BREAKING DRAWING. KMBC NINE S DORISSA WHITE SPOKE WITH A FINANCIAL ADVISOR ON THE NEXT STEPS. IF THAT\u2019S YOUR TICKET NOW HERE AT RED X, THE POWERBALL HAS BEEN RESET TO $20 MILLION. BUT ON SATURDAY IT WAS SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER. NOW WE DID SPEAK WITH AN EXPERT WHO SAID THERE ARE SOME STEPS THAT YOU NEED TO TAKE BEFORE CLAIMING THOSE WINNINGS. OVER $1.7 BILLION WILL BE SPLIT WITH ANOTHER WINNING TICKET HOLDER IN TEXAS. THE WINNING NUMBERS FOR SEPTEMBER 6TH WERE 11, 23, 44, 61 AND 62, WITH POWERBALL NUMBER OF 17. STATE LOTTERY OFFICIALS SAY THE WINNER SHOULD SEEK LEGAL AND FINANCIAL GUIDANCE BEFORE CLAIMING THEIR PRIZE IN JEFFERSON CITY, AND CO-FOUNDER OF FALCON WEALTH ADVISORS SAY THERE\u2019S NO HURRY TO CLAIM YOUR PRIZE AND YOU NEED TO PUT STEPS IN PLACE BEFORE YOU DO. I WOULD RECOMMEND WOULD BE HIRING A BENCH, BASICALLY OF PROFESSIONALS TO HELP YOU. SO A FIDUCIARY WEALTH ADVISOR, A TAX PROFESSIONAL, AN INSURANCE PERSON AND AN ATTORNEY GET ALL OF THOSE PEOPLE IN ONE ROOM TOGETHER BEFORE YOU MAKE ANY BIG DECISIONS. MISSOURI LOTTERY OFFICIALS SAY YOU ALSO WANT TO SIGN THE BACK OF YOUR TICKET IMMEDI\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
