This is the bees knees. New knees for a Lincolnton, North Carolina lottery winner.
A North Carolina woman from Lincoln County was finally able to get the knee replacement surgery she needs after winning a $150,000 Powerball prize. Her name is Ronda Isaac (this is not her picture by the way) and she lives in Lincolnton. She says she was surprised and actually relieved to win the prize.
She says this will enable her to get the long awaited surgery she has been needing. After taxes, Isaac took home $106,876 dollars and plans to put any remaining funds into her savings account after surgery.
Nine times out of ten when we get the news that someone won the lottery, almost always they say they are going to buy a vehicle of some kind. And that’s ok! It is good to see the money was Kneeded (see what I did there); congratulations to our local lady Ronda Isaac.
To learn more and see her actual picture get all the details from the North Carolina Education Lottery.

There are some states that are luckier than others. There is no doubt about it. North Carolina made the list of 15 lucky states in the United States, according to OLBG. Everyone has fantasized about winning the lottery, whether it’s the Mega Millions or the Powerball. Whether you’re planning a lavish vacation, buying a house, treating a loved one, giving to charity, or all of the above, when we buy a ticket we always have a little bit of hope and our imaginations go wild when we hear about the unclaimed winning ticket…
When it comes to winning big on the lottery, which states are the luckiest? To determine where in America has the greatest likelihood of winning the big bucks, OLBG analyzed all lottery winners in the U.S. with a jackpot of $300 million or more. You can see the top 15 states below.
