Imagine winning $1 million and just... not claiming it! That’s what’s happening in Illinois right now—a Powerball ticket worth a cool mil is still unclaimed months after the draw. But here’s the kicker: if the winner finally steps up, they’ll have to choose between a lump sum or annuity, and taxes could eat up nearly half the prize. Would you wait or cash in ASAP? Check your tickets, people! #LotteryDrama #UnclaimedMillions #Powerball #IllinoisLottery #MoneyTalk #Finance
