[ad_1] Seniors are one of the fastest-growing populations of cannabis users in the United States. While some older adults have used pot for decades, studies suggest that others are turning to the drug for the first time to help them sleep better, dampen pain or treat anxiety — especially when prescription drugs, which often come with unwanted side effects, don’t work as intended. In 2007, only about 0.4 percent of people age 65 and older in the United States had reported using cannabis in the past year, according to the National Survey on Drug Use and Health.

The new jackpot was estimated to be $1.4 billion, according to its website, which still would rank third of all-time. The last time someone the jackpot was July 19, when a $1.08 billion jackpot was won in California, according to the Multi-State Lottery Association, which helps coordinate it. The odds of winning the Powerball jackpot are a very long 1 in 292.2 million. Powerball, like Mega Millions, years ago made changes to the game that made it harder to win jackpots — which causes them to grow larger — while increasing the chance of winning smaller prizes. Powerball was changed in 2015, and Mega Millions was changed in 2017. Powerball is played in 45 states, Washington, D.C.
