Powerball is worth a billion-dollars.
No one won Monday’s drawing, so the jackpot for tonight’s drawing is worth at least a billion-dollars according to lottery officials. It’s been since April since anyone won the jackpot. The lump sum for tonight’s jackpot would be just over 518 million-dollars, before taxes. This is the third largest Powerball jackpot ever in the U.S. The Mega Millions jackpot isn’t far behind. Lotto managers say no one won the jackpot in last night’s drawing. That means Friday’s drawing will be worth at least 720 million-dollars.
