MegaMillions jackpot is up to $330 million

Didn't win the PowerBall?

You're not alone. But you may have another shot.

The MegaMillions Jackpot is up to $330 million dollars, that's $16 million more than the last week's Powerball Jackpot, the 4th largest in that game's history.

The odds of winning the MegaMillions Jackpot are about one in 176 million, while the Powerball odds were about one in 146 million -- it's a longer shot, but a bigger payoff.

And there's also the drive. You can buy a MegaMillions ticket in Massachusetts, but not in Rhode Island.

Is it worth it?

See what people are saying they'd do with the money.
