Start saying goodbye to your coworkers, because you might retire with a $750 million-winning lottery ticket Wednesday.
The Powerball drawing will be Wednesday night, giving those who buy a $2 ticket a chance at winning the fourth-largest lottery jackpot in USA history. Or the world's most expensive vehicle - the $19 million Bugatti La Voiture Noire - for you and 38 friends.
If one ticket matches all six numbers, the victor will have a choice: the full $750 million jackpot in 30 annual payments or a one-time cash option of approximately $465.5 million before taxes.
Still, someone has to win eventually.
Eight tickets matched all five white balls, but missed matching the red Powerball in Saturday's drawing to win a $1 million prize. Now that's good karma.
The next drawing for what would be the fourth-largest jackpot in USA history is Wednesday.
The second-largest - a staggering $1.537 billion Mega Millions prize - was won last October by an unidentified woman in SC.
The $750 million estimated figure refers to the annuity option, paid over 29 years.
