$510M Powerball

- Noah Goldberg

THE POWERBALL jackpot soared to $510 million Thursday, and there are just as many ideas about what to do with the money.

Instead of slinging sandwiches at the Mini Market Deli on Broadway in Williamsbu­rg, Brooklyn, Ahmed Shayef, 18, would like to cash in a winning Powerball ticket and just buy the building.

“The whole building,” Shayef said. “I’d get into real estate, that's what I want to do.”

The jackpot has a cash option of $324.2 million, making it the eighth-largest prize in U.S. lottery history.
