In the United States, a lucky person has won a prize of $ 1.3 billion in the lottery called Mega Million Jackpot. It should be noted that the chances of winning the Mega Million Jackpot are only one out of 302.5 million tickets.


Jackpot is America's third largest lottery prize, according to the Associated Press. In Friday night's lottery, the ticket winning the mega million jackpot lottery was purchased in the state of Illinois, but the winner has not yet come out lucky.

Earlier in 2016, the biggest lottery ever came out, with a prize money of $ 1.58 billion, which was divided among the three lucky ones. Then in 2018, a lucky one won a lottery of $ 1.53 billion.



There is a choice for the winner to either receive money on an annual installment basis or take a large sum of money. However, $1.3 billion will be paid in annual installments for 29 years, while if taken together, this amount will be $ 787.2 million. Winners often choose to take the lucky lump sum.

Mega Million Jackpot is played in 45 states of the United States as well as the capital Washington DC and the US Virgin Islands.
