Powerball’s massive jackpot will rollover and increase after Saturday’s drawing produced no winning tickets, according to the game’s website.
The $1.4-billion jackpot now grows to $1.55 billion but remains the third-largest in Powerball’s history (the second largest was $1.586 billion in 2016).
The last time someone won the Powerball jackpot after the July 19 drawing for the $1.08 billion pot. The winning ticket then was sold in California.

Few people bat an eye at spending $40 for two tickets and food to a movie for two hours. If $20 gets someone a few hours of escapism and dreaming, it’s not that big of a deal. But like any other entertainment, spending that much every day is probably not good, and certainly not if it’s done only as an investment.
I have a bought a few of these billion dollar tickets for fun. And ya I think about how I’d divide the money up etc. but the thing that always makes me hope I don’t win is the reality that once you realize you’ve won, you’re never going to be able to be alone again. You have to have a security team with you at all times if you’re a billionaire. I’d rather just be me tbh.
I am that person who doesn’t mind $20 when it gets around 1 billion. The problem lately is I used to enjoy it more when it was $10 for 10 tickets and 2nd it really is taking a long time for anyone to win which is turning into a problem now… I am considering either dropping down to $10 or upping my starting time to 1.5 billion since it really seems to be getting pretty high quicker these days as well. This next drawing will make it $60 now in 1 week and I am not ok with it anymore.
