Man you guys are retarted.

Despite the "dollar being worth less" in my lifetime even if you got 1mil a year and value drops your still setting very pretty.

At no point in the history of money if you had a million dollars would you even be poor.

I infact do know a guy who won 60 mil with the lottery 2 years ago and he's already broke.
Went and bought old buildings in centre city. Spent so much renovating to open a high class restaurant that failed.
Tried to open franchises here/ bought the rights and end up defaulting cause he didn't have enough cash and now is getting sued by the franchise for defaulting.

This is essentially what you dumb dumbs would do with "muh lump sum"

The beauty of being paid every year is that you have a set limit that you need to take steps to go beyond and that's why yearly is better then lump sum.
Fuck man i can't begin to explain my frustration to you dumb fucks.

> 50 million lump sum.
If you'd take the 30 years option you're retarded and will never make it. Unironically. The 30-year T-bond yield is 3.2%. 50*1.032^30=128.6. You'd have 128.6MM after 30 years with (almost) zero risk. If you put it in stocks then, assuming a 7% expected nominal return, you'd have an expected 380MM after 30 years.

You need someone to manage ur money for u? Lmao

If you were to invest 25million in a conservative fund that gave u 4% average every year you would have close to 100million in 30 years and you would have been able to enjoy ur 25 million immediately buy a lambo, mansión a couple rental properties and snort cocain off super model tits.

To be honest with you, even $1 million is probably more than I will ever need to live comfortably. I would prefer to just take the $50 lump sum so I don't have to report getting $3 million every year on my taxes. Too much complication for something I don't even need.

And then I would probably donate $49 million so I wouldn't feel guilty about all dooose poooor peepoo

$3 million if it's inflation adjusted and guaranteed. Otherwise the $50 million.

>> No.11230752

>>11230495
That's assuming you have zero risk tolerance (i.e. 100% in T-bonds) which no one with 50MM has. Also, even if you have an extremely low risk tolerance you should probably still go with option A because the inflation risk of option B is significantly higher.

You can use this as a rough IQ estimate.

50 million lump sum means you're >100 IQ

50 million.
Even the 3 million for 30 years are more (within 3% inflation still about 60 million total), I would rather take the 50 million.
You get 1.5 million a year at 5% from the 50 million.
And I have this for my whole life, plus 50 million in case I need it (maybe to buy a Mars ticket or something).

What is risk? You are assuming that the dollar will still be strong in 30 years. What if inflation eats it all up? Better to have $50 million now and put it in future-proof assets, than to have $90 million in a future where no one uses dollars anymore, right?

You can take out a mortgage and deduct some of the interest off of your taxes, effectively allowing you to short sell the dollar. There are also a shit ton of other loopholes you can exploit when you take the yearly annuity.

>50 million lump sum
49.5M taxed at the highest rate at 37%

>3 million a year x 30 years
Given tax rates stay the same, only 2.5M would be taxed at the highest 37%. Meaning 15M of that 90M is taxed at lower rates

So not only does the govt give you $40M more in the end, but this is also the smart way to go re: taxation.

>But you can make more in the stock market
Sure until a bear market arises

>> No.11231381

3M invest half after taxes, still have ~700k/year free for living and/or risky investments. I'm a cheap fuck so after I secured a house and transportation, I'd need less than 30k to live on, and that's with splurging on very nice food. Pretty sure that's sustainable and will net much more than 50 lump sum due to constrained decision making.

You take it split.

70% upfront and the rest paid to you over the rest of your life.

You do this because you cant trust the government. 50 million now could be 50 cents if the government goes Communist and inflates the dollar.

You take some paid to you because you dont know what the money will do to you. You could be completely changed by it and start spending like a waterfall. Some cunt could appear that you never met and allege that you sexually groped her 30 years ago at a party but she cant remember where or when and she has to be believed because shes a gurl and the judge grants her all your money.
