Winning the lottery is so far-fetched that we can only dream about it happening or talk about it sarcastically. However, for one family in a small town in Missouri, the dream turned into an amazing reality because they won one of the most massive Powerball lotteries ever in US history. The family actually made headlines across the country not for the mind-blowing enormous amount of money which came their way but for what they decided to do with it. While many people would choose to spend their money on luxurious things, such as a sports car or a luxurious home, if they got the chance to have such a significant windfall, the choices that this family made seemed odd.

Married couple Mark and Cindy Hill were in their 50s and living in Camden Point, a small town in Missouri when their lives completely changed. Three of their grown-up children had already moved out and had started their own families, while Mark and Cindy were bringing up their adopted daughter from China who was six years old at the time. Recently, however, their financial situation has gotten a little tighter compared to the past, and they struggled a bit more to make ends meet. In addition, Mark’s health condition worried his son, but never in the family’s wildest dreams did they imagine that a very big lottery win was just around the corner.
