Powerball Jackpot Hits $975M | Detroit News

Powerball’s jackpot just hit an eye-popping $975 million—yes, that’s nearly a billion bucks—after no one won last Monday. With a lump sum payout of $422 million before taxes, this is the 15th time a U.S. lottery has hit the billion-dollar mark and the 8th for Powerball. The odds? One in 292 million. But dreams don’t care about stats—people are buying tickets like crazy. If it climbs past $1 billion on Wednesday, it’ll be the biggest Powerball jackpot ever since the $2.04 billion win in 2022. The dream’s still alive—keep those tickets safe. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
