Nah. Take the lump sum, invest in cryptocurrency, and make enough gains through the would-be annuity term that surpass what you would have going that route.
20 yo won the mega millions jackpot

Tomorrow isn’t promised. Especially if you win the lottery. I’d always take the lump sum. Dude isn’t even old enough to legally buy alcohol, lol, but is now a multimillionaire.

Take the lump sum and with some wise investments, he could pass the total amount easily.

I think in MD (could be wrong), you have the option to keep it a secret.
You can come out there in a ski mask and with the big check too if you want

That reddit post that got linked is the same post I read that convinced me going ghost as soon as humanely possible is the best course of action, not even considering the announcement that you won the lottery if you live in one of those jurisdictions where that happens.
I've lived in the same city my entire life, an announcement like that would have goons outside my house within the hour. Plenty of people I don't even care to talk to know where I live, it'd be a wrap.

bruh I just read that and it gave me mild anxiety. I'd absolutely disappear. I don't like most people so saying no wouldn't be a thang. I'd probably end up murked for not giving people money if I stuck around.

A year? Son will be on vacation for the rest of his life is he plays his cards right.
I wouldnt even think about taking annuities. Im not leaving 30 years of money in the states hands, you never know if/when **** will hit the fan.
If you're smart with it, you could parlay the lump sum into more than the original jackpot amount.

I believe that's exactly what would happen to me. Once I knew the bag from the lotto was secure I would head straight to the airport, no lie. Wouldn't even pack.

I'd never trust the state to ensure I receive my annual payments on time if at all.
