The Powerball drawing is up to $415 million dollars and it's stirring up lots of business across our community. This is the 8th largest lottery jackpot in the history of the games in the United States.

We can all dream. I might make a house purchase and a new car purchase. But I would bank a lot of the money. My sons would also get a nice chunk of the change.

How much of the money goes to the state and to our schools? Louisiana Lottery Spokeswoman Kim Chopin says

35% of every dollar spent on lottery, whether it’s Powerball, or Lotto, or a scratch off game is dedicated for K-12 public education. So, good news all the way around for us.
