FARGO, N.D. (AP) - A Dilworth, Minn., man who bought a winning $200,000 Powerball ticket at a Fargo store says he'll use some of the money to pay off student loans and credit cards, and sock the rest away.
Twenty-5-year-old Clay Kuhlemeyer (KOOL'-uh-my-uhr) is getting $138,000 after taxes.
Kuhlemeyer's ticket matched 5 of the six numbers in the Aug. 1 Powerball drawing. He bought the ticket at a Fargo Sunmart store near the liquor store where he works. Had Kuhlemeyer spent an extra dollar on the game's Power Play option, his prize would be worth $1 million.
