What math are you using? Mathematically you should take the payout and not the lump sumWhich you always should mathematically.
By Investing the 500,000,000 you can live off of interest/dividends and still grow the principal with even modest investments. You'd do better than the annuity in the same time frame while still having all the money available.What math are you using? Mathematically you should take the payout and not the lump sum
With the lump sum you get 500,000,000 vs 979,886,240. You would be leaving 500 million on the table.

How is it not worth buying a $2 ticket? Man gtfo . It doesn’t hurt to drop $2 . Also you can’t still win 1.6 million if you get 5 out of 6 and like 300k if you get 4 out of 6. Tell that faggot to shut the fuck up with his blunt like negative thoughtsAn age old debate
