What Would You Do If You Won The $700 Million Powerball?

I read recently that 25% of married couples would get a divorce if one of them won the lottery. If you were ever going to buy a lottery ticket, this might just be the day to do it.

The Powerball drawing tomorrow night is going to have a jackpot of around $700 MILLION (possibly even more) and that's the biggest lottery jackpot in HISTORY. The previous record was $656 million in 2012.

If you win and take the lump sum, you'll get about $428.4 million. Assuming about half of that goes to taxes, you're winding up with $214 million. Not too bad.

Your odds of winning the jackpot are one in 292.2 million. So I'm saying there's a chance.

Powerball tickets are available in 44 states -- everywhere but Alaska, Hawaii, Nevada, Utah, Alabama, and Mississippi. They cost $2 and the drawing is at 10:59 p.m. EST tomorrow.
