What would you do with $800 million? Thousands are dreaming of a big win in Powerball. The record Powerball jackpot just got bigger, climbing to $800 million as sales soared in the days leading up to the drawing.

Gary Grief, executive director of the Texas Lottery, says officials with the Multi-State Lottery Association on Friday raised the estimated jackpot for Saturday night's drawing from $700 million because of strong sales.

Grief says Powerball sales on Thursday were double the previous record for that day and that it's possible the estimated jackpot could rise again before the drawing.

A winner would have the option of being paid $800 million through annual payments over 29 years or opting for $496 million in cash.

Powerball is played in 44 states as well as the District of Columbia, U.S. Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico.

Put my girls in charge of it with the stipulation that anyone in our large family that was struggling would have a safety net available. As for me. a cabin by a good fishing lake, a decent fishing boat, a new truck and enough in the bank to see me through the rest of my days here.
