All the things you could buy with the $1.4 billion Powerball jackpot

After the huge anticipation for the Wednesday, October 4 drawing, in which the Powerball jackpot had already surpassed the one-billion-dollar mark, after once again becoming vacant, the coveted prize once again accumulated to reach the incredible figure of 1.4 billion dollars.

With this figure, this Saturday's jackpot will already rank as the 5th largest lottery prize in the world, and the third largest in Powerball history.

The other 4 jackpots that for the moment remain on the podium, are:

• The $2.04 billion Powerball prize, won on November 8, 2022 in California (USA) by a Hispanic-American named Edwin Castro.
• The $1.586 billion Powerball prize, won on January 13, 2016, and which was shared among 3 winners: John and Lisa Robison (Tennessee), Marvin and Mae Acosta (California) and the Nickel 95 Trust (Florida).
• The $1.58 billion Mega Millions prize, won on August 8, 2023 by a single anonymous player from Florida.
• The $1.537 billion Mega Millions jackpot, won on October 23, 2018 by a single anonymous player from South Carolina.

However, although the announced jackpot is $1.4 billion, the truth is that the estimated real cash value of the prize is estimated to be around $643.7 million, after the tax break that applies to lottery prizes won in the US. Either way, it's still a lot of money. So much that we will see everything we could buy with the Mega Millions mega-jackpot:

It's a sprawling estate of almost 7 hectares, with a 12-bedroom main house, two beach cottages and a 7-bedroom guest house - so you'll never be short of space again!

In summary: Expectations for the Powerball drawing

There is no doubt that a jackpot like the one Powerball will be playing for this Saturday could make a big difference in anyone's life. And the fact that participating in the draw is possible at a very affordable price, makes it an even more attractive opportunity. However, it is always important to keep in mind that the odds of winning are very low so, although dreaming doesn't cost anything, remember to always keep realistic expectations and a moderate budget, as you should never spend more than you can afford to lose.

So with that said, good luck in the sweepstakes!
