- It's been three months since the last person won the Powerball lottery jackpot.
- The jackpot is now at $935 million, ranking it among the top five largest ever.
The Powerball jackpot has spent three months incubating. It's now nearing the $1 billion mark.
The prize — now ranked among the top five largest Powerball jackpots ever — has a cash value of $452.3 million, the lottery's website said.
"It only takes one ticket to win this massive jackpot or any of Powerball's other cash prizes," Drew Svitko, Powerball's product group chair, said in a press release.
A lucky winner hit the jackpot on New Year's Day when it was $842.4 million. There have been 37 drawings since then without a winner, the press release said.
The next drawing will be on Saturday at 10:59 p.m. ET. Though the odds of winning are very low, some have been lucky. But luck hasn't stopped some lottery winners from losing it all.
