Don't get to excited, if you take the lump sum payment, after taxes
you'll be lucky to have $600 Million to scrimp by on.
I'm frugal though, that could last the rest of my life :-)

And, if YOU win and decide to take the payments, and in the course, YOU die, all payments stop. The payments were to YOU and not to a beneficiary.
In that regard, you should turn in the ticket in your name, your wife
and the kids if you are taking the annuity. Personally I would take
the cash. There are people now in Ohio who are just getting an IOU
because the state is broke. I wouldn't trust the government to come up
with 50 million a year for 30 years.
Greg, I don't know about Ohio but Illinois wasn't paying anything above a small amount in the Illinois lottery because they didn't have a balanced budget signed in. I think some lawsuits againt the state kinda cured that, though
They need Al Gore's "lock box" in IL!
