The Powerball jackpot has been won while the Mega Millions Jackpot has grown!

Last night (1/20) somebody in Maryland matched all the numbers and the Powerball to win the $731,000,000 jackpot. The single winner will be claiming the fourth largest Powerball jackpot in the history of the game.

If you are not the lucky person with the winning Powerball ticket, you still have a chance at stupid money.

The next Mega Millions drawing is Friday night, January 22nd. That jackpot has grown to an estimated $970,000,000!

What crazy, expensive “toy” would you buy yourself if you won nearly one billion dollars?
