Cash. It is a 3% return, but back end loaded.***

I’d take the annuity

Moderate hookers and blow for two decades, rather than 400 mil of hookers and blow and broke afterwards.

Plus, the annuity can be willed out, so if the hookers and blow kill me, kids can use the rest

Just take the cash, and get a good financial advisor.


Jul 29, 2022, 4:29 PM

a Pro. I already have a CPA. Next door is advisors.

If you committed to spending less each year than the...

interest gained you wouldn't need a financial advisor. You might agree, with yourself, to spend less each year than you could spend in your lifespan.

I suspect at 70 I'd go hog wild.

Lump sum.


Jul 29, 2022, 4:59 PM [ in reply to so would you take cash, or the 29 year annuity?*** ]

But where would you keep it? One bank? 50? That's the part I would need assistance with. I can see taking THAT check to the teller at the credit union. So much for "anonymity". Even if you buddied up with the local bank pres everyone in town would know before you left the branch. And THAT'S when the kidnappings, extortions and pointless lawsuits and crap start happening.


And invest it...why risk it? Its like an $800 million payout..figure 60% of that you keep after taxes. I don't think I could even spend $480 million before I die.
