^^^^
that is a FUNNY coincidence.
I've been posting threads on this debate for years and I have NEVER EVER heard all these so called reliable sources telling people to NOT take the lump sum.
It has ALWAYS been take the lump sum.
Yes Sir two different cards.You....you can't.....
this year’s check is only for $22.6 million
can your annuity go to your estate or to your descendants?
yes but it is subject to the estate tax.
yeah the government tries to rob everyone with all of their "cuts"...taxing money already taxed....![]()

they aren't taxing the same person twice, if you inherit money you will pay taxes on it. If they didn't it would be one of the biggest tax breaks for rich then y'all would be complaining that it's not fair . You could put your money in a trust to avoid estate taxes but the but trust distributions will be taxed as well
sure buddyYou .......(first 3 letters).......ASSume
If you won the lottery, would you choose the annuity for 20 years or the lump sum instantly?
I would create a trust prior to claiming the money and if my state allows,the trust would be the winner. In some circumstances, a trust may protect the money from lawsuits. The more money you have to invest, the more your winnings will earn. A lump sum payment reduces your payout by between 25 to 30 percent. So let's assume you win 100 million, and take a lump sum payment of 70 million. Figure to spend 50% in taxes, and you are left with 35 million. So, take 10% to spend, that’s 3.5 million. Buy a house, clothes, car, whatever. That leaves 31.5 million to invest. At 5% interest that is 1.575 million the first year. Now have the trust pay you an annual annuity of let's say 500K. You reinvest the rest; so added to the original 31.5 million you now have 32.575 million. The next year you’ve earned 5% again, 1.628 million. Again you pay yourself a 500k annuity and reinvest the rest. Now you have $33,703,750. You’re living luxuriously on $500,000 a year and your winnings continue to grow. In 20 years you may have doubled your original investment of 31.5 million.
@4 Dimensional is this math right?
Sounds good in theory. But I’m not sure how any of the works honestly.
One thing is true, you have to invest or other wise your money will continuously decrease without getting something back.
What type of house would a person get? Property tax and maintenance may whoop ass if not careful.
But what savings account is giving 5% interest a year? Also, that the assumption that the person can truly live off of 500k a year other wise, they’ll bite into their savings reducing the amount they could earn from interest.
I’d take the lump sum and immediately pay all my debt off. I’d find a high interest savings account and put in there until I figure out my next move.
