Here’s something to add to your holiday weekend list: Saturday’s Powerball jackpot is estimated at $1 billion, the sixth-largest prize in the game’s history. Powerball, which costs $2 per ticket, is played in 45 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The jackpot has been growing each week because no one has matched all six numbers since May. The jackpot can be spread over 30 years or a winner can choose an immediate lump sum of $453 million. Taxes kick in first.
