Suppose you won the lottery... |
|
A frikkin' BIG one like the upcoming Powerball.
Would you take the lump sum or payments? I'd take the lump sum. It's less, but I figure I'll be dead before I'd get all the payments.

6. lump sum --> land trust |
|
(with a chunk for myself, of course, but I can barely think for a use of half of the take-home).
Then I'd have a land trust where I could play SimCity with the lives of REAL people! Bwah haha haha! :evilgrin:
