Lump sum-I don't want it to be like an allowance and me waiting for my money every month.

I want it in my pocket!

Lump sum...who knows what the future will hold and if the government would decide to cut lottery payments due to enormous deficit.

Take the money and run!!!!

and seriously, $200 mil or $100 mil...in the grand scheme of things...you'd still be filthy rich!!Chat Icon



i agree... also, you would have so much more money upfront to invest that you could then make even more money.

Re: If you won the Mega Millions...

It would depend for me.....With a jackpot this high I say lump sum and I believe with taxes and what not it's about 110mill out the door. If it were a smaller jackpot I would do the instalments just to have better control of how I spent and for my family's future. I'm HORRIBLE with money so in the end I would have somebody help me with ALL my decisions! If I win anybody want a jobChat Icon

Definetly lump sum. Take part of it and pay off debts, go on a great vacation and buy & furnish a house. Invest the rest and have my $$$ work for me.

LUMP!!! The current jackpot is like over 300 million...

I would donate like 50-60 million of it to brain injury (IBRFinc.org)

I would open a safe haven for animals -- to be rescued.

DH and I would move to a beautiful house in Nissequogue -- a place where I could have a couple of horses.

I would buy houses for my brother, parents, sister, and some close friends.

I would get a personal trainer lol why not? I would love to get in the absolute best shape. I would hire a chef to cook healthy and organic meals for us.

I would buy great clothes. I would shop at Tiffany's and not look at price tags.

I would travel.

I would have kids.
