The $430 Million Powerball Jackpot

I just found out that someone in New Jersey won that last big Powerball jackpot that was worth $430 million. Since no one except this person got all the numbers right, he or she won't have to share it with anyone else.

This was just one of the largest jackpots the Powerball game had. As some of you may recall, just a few years ago, the jackpot had reached $1.6 billion, and it was split between three people who had all chosen the winning numbers.

I don't know when the jackpot will get that big again, but I'm sure it will happen at some point--because that's how the lottery people keep the public pouring money into the game.
