Image source: Getty Images The temptation to buy a Powerball ticket is understandable, especially when there's over $1 billion up for grabs. That kind of money would be transformative for most Americans. Which makes the idea of spending $2 -- less than the cost of a take-out coffee -- for a chance of hitting the jackpot beyond attractive. The trouble is that we're not just talking about $2.
