Even though I can pretty much guarantee that you or I will not win the jackpot, when it gets this big you have to buy a few right? How big is the current Powerball jackpot do you ask? Big enough that I think every person living in Washington, Oregon, and California should buy at least one!

What are the Powerball Winning Details?
They always say the devil is in the details. If you win the huge Powerball jackpot you can choose “o receive their prize, less applicable taxes, as an annuity or a lump sum payment. A jackpot winner who selects the annuity will receive one immediate payment followed by 29 annual payments that increase by five percent each year. The 30 payments added up equal the value of the annuity prize. The estimated cash value for the lump sum payment is $782.4 million.” To find out more information about the rules or check your numbers, go to the official Powerball website. I would wish you good luck, but I am keeping it all for myself. Sorry, not sorry!
