Powerball Jackpot up to $424 Million Dollars, Feeling Lucky?

Hurry to the corner store and get your Powerball ticket, because tonight's Powerball Jackpot drawing is already at $424 Million. 

Okay so maybe you can buy Twitter but winning the Powerball tonight would make life a lot easier. What would you do with the money?

Let's do a rundown on how much money you would really get after taxes.

If you were the only one with the winning numbers the cash option is $271.9 million dollars. Not to shabby if you make sure you don't spend it all in one place.

How tall is 424 million? On the Powerball website, it shows you an estimate of how tall a stack of money is if you decided to stack the amount in $100 bills on top of each other. At $300 Million that stack of cash would be as high as the Eiffel Town in Paris! But $424 Million is closer to the 500 million mark where they list it as being as high as One World Trade Center in New York City at 1776 feet high.

In other words, if you win don't try and find this money under your mattress. it won't work.

There are three Powerball drawings every week on Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays. Tickets are only $2.

The drawing for the estimated $424 Million is tonight at 10 PM so grab your tickets. If you win you'll have more money than you'll know what to do with, but on the bright side if no one wins the jackpot will go up and you'll have another chance at it on Saturday night.
