One word best describes the Mega Millions jackpot so far in 2022: unwavering. Since October, all efforts to bring it down have only made it grow even more.

Well, no. The Mega Millions jackpot remained standing January 25, 2022. Once again, the jackpot had another growth spurt, stopping at $421 million.
