the only answer is 75k per year. That would be a yearly interest rate of 7.5% on your 1 million. Common sense retirement say withdraw 4% to preserve principal long term. So 75k per year that is assured is like having 1.875 million up front, but without downside risk of black swan events or beginning withdrawls during a market crash period.

Suppose we have an initial investment of 1 000 000, in 40 years pa. 7.5% it will grow to 18M44K.
In the same period, a 75K per annum stream, reinvested at the same 7.5% per annum interest will grow to 18M 322K.
What happens if the per annum yield is 10%? 1M grows into 45M and the yearly dividend of 75K to a 'mere' 36.5M. However, at 5% interest, the 1M grows into 7M and the yearly payment into 9.5M.

You aren't thinking straight, because with the million you have returns on investment plus a million dollars.

Finance 101 question - comparing a lump sum to the PV of a perpetuity. I'll assume that inflation remains at 2% year on year and we can consider the risk free rate as 2.8%.

OK then let’s assume 4% growth. You’ll start earning 75k/year at year 17.
If you invest all the 75k also at 4% growth, the 1 mill will still be worth more in the same amount of time.

If you earn 75k a year then it will take you 14 years to make a million dollars. The only situation in which 1,000,000 upfront is worth it would be a scenario where you know you can earn a lot of money, but need capital for it. If I took that 1,000,000 and invested it. I might expect 10% gains a year, since that's what the market tracks at. In 28 years I'll have about 14 million dollars. If I took all of that 75k and invested it over the same time, and with the same return, I would get 11 million. Technically this means a million dollars is a better choice. But I don't think the risk is worth it. With 75k a year you could retire and live a very comfortable life right now. You can't do the same with that one million. Plus if you under perform the market, then you can still live well. If you lose that million then it's GG.

I can appreciate people who take the one million, so long as they put more thought into it than how much it can fuel instant gratification, but it's always safer to bet on yourself being stupid and incompetent. 75k a year is better. You also have to assume there's no taxes, because that makes things way more complicated.

Take the million now and invest. Here is why:

If you invested safely (5% per year) the 75k each year it would take you 10 years to reach a million.

sum of 75000*(1.05^x) from 1 to 10 ~= 990k

Take the one lump sum:

1000000 * (1.05^10) ~= 1.6million

This is obviously assuming that you get 75k/1m net AFTER tax and it’s 5% net gain after capital gains.

At about 20 years out they are about equal.

But with a million on hand now you can make wider investments on day 1 that can spiral into more and more capital to work with over time. From day 1 of 75k you have less than a tenth of that to invest with. You aren’t buying anything big or risky enough to truly get the ball rolling. You’re basically getting a free middle manager income.

I have self control so I’d pick the million. Day 1 let’s me work with the money as if it’s an investment pool rather than normal salary. Make the risks now, have them pay off or kill me sooner. 75k for people with bad self control and who would just put it into something stupid like Tesla or Crypto because “le future is nao”

Obviously take the million dollars now. You take those million dollars and even with a fairly moderate portfolio, you can pull of 7.5% returns per year. Then you can choose to cash in those 75k per year and have a million more in assets or save up and let compound interest do its magic.

Many will say that the lump sum is the correct choice however look at it from this perspective. Regardless of how your life situation is, youll be making 75k yearly just for existing.

Idk about yall but knowing I have that cash flow for the rest of my life would allow me to live a much less stressful life.

Confirmed 105. 1M right away even in a conservative investment vehicle gives you 3-4% a year.

After 10 years:
A) 1M lump sum at 4% per year = 1M5
B) 5k each year at 4% per year = 900k

After 20 years:
A) 2M222k
B) 2M233k

Even with the most conservative investment profile, you need 20 years to break even. Be any more aggressive in your positions and the 1M lump sum blows the 75k a year.

Worse still, this is all napkin math discarding opportunity cost, inflation and geopolitics risk. Getting 1M while you're young and can leverage it beats getting 2M two decades from now. The hardest part of business is making your first million.
