Are you looking to see if you woke up $579,000,000 dollars richer? Well here's the winning Powerball Numbers for November 28th (11/28).

If you scratched off a winning lottery ticket worth $5 million dollars what would you do? See a lawyer? An investment counselor? A tax adviser? Sure, but how long would you wait to cash it in?

Since 1993, Joan R. Ginther has hit the lotto jackpot four times, to the tune of $2 million, $3 million, $5.4 million and $10 million. The chances of this happening are one in 18 septillion. For a point of reference, there are about one septillion grains of sand on earth.
