They will receive the full amount of the jackpot in 30 annual installments, or they can opt for a one-time cash payment of $329.7 million.

The odds of winning the jackpot are incredibly slim, but that doesn’t stop people from dreaming. For the Harrisburg winner, that dream has become a reality. They now have the chance to live a life of luxury and make a lasting impact on their community.
