Rollovers: A jackpot this size would likely require 30+ draws without a winner, as each rollover adds millions to the total.
Ticket Sales Boom: As the prize grows, ticket sales skyrocket, with billions in sales for each drawing fueling the jackpot's growth.
The odds of hitting the jackpot remain fixed at 1 in 302,575,350, no matter how large the prize becomes. Each ticket has an equal chance, and no strategy can improve your odds.
Lump Sum: The cash value of a $9 billion jackpot would likely be around $4.5 billion, depending on ticket sales and economic factors.
Federal Taxes: The IRS takes 37% off the top, reducing a lump sum payout to about $2.8 billion.
State Taxes: Depending on where you live, state taxes can claim an additional 0–10%, further lowering the final amount.
With more players, the likelihood of multiple winners increases. If the jackpot is split between two or more winners, each receives an equal share.
The largest jackpot to date was $1.602 billion, won in August 2023. A $9 billion prize would shatter this record, solidifying its place in lottery history.
