    That's what I thought, but I am studying investments right now and thought there could be something I haven't seen. I absolutely hate the thought of stock market investing right now.

      Another big reason I wouldn't want the annuity that no one has mentioned is you would be trusting this program to be solvent for 30 years. Where the government is involved that's a big risk
      8% is a real number in the better parts of Md. for new construction private lending.

      Like anything else, gotta know who you are dealing with as well as the numbers in the land vs. construction.

      The right deal is very safe though.

      With a 12-15% margin to work with on the back end, it survived 2008 so I would call that very safe for the return.

      I have worked within that several times.

      Your post said sure though, no such thing as that , as you well know.

      I agree on the no annuity.

        If you do annuity, you are admitting to having failed self control, and basic life principles. Almost worse than sweat pants.

        We are currently in a world were money actually has to work to make money, and the lump sum is still so much more beneficial it really is ridiculous.

                                Steps in order of what to do with new found fortune.

                                1) Shit on boss' desk.
                                2) Buy a new car
                                3) Buy a new woman
                                4) Pay my wife to deal with new woman (the alternative is obvious)
                                5-73) General degenerate purchases and wastes of money

                                ..... This is where the plan really comes together.

                                74) Purchase the Phoenix Coyotes
                                75) Take whatever cash I have left, make a syndicate, fan out across the globe to recollect the purchase money of the Coyotes via point shaving/fixing during next Hockey Season.
                                76) Own hockey team free and clear. Hopefully am still allowed to reside in the US.
                                77) Play more lottery.

                                        If I won - I'd withdraw $100,000 in $1 bills, get on top of a building, make it "rain" and watch the madness.

                                              1 in 175,223,510 odds of hitting the jackpot, 377 mil cash out value (unreal US government, unreal)...

                                              tickets are $2 so assuming some other jackass doesn't pick your same numbers, combined with the other prizes involved, this is one of the few times you will have direct odds of playing to lottery.

                                                Workin on it! If I win I'd like to try to bankrupt a casino by going all in on red...

                                                That's a lie, I'd die of a heart attack watching that ball spin around before I even saw the outcome.

                                                Maybe I'll just buy a casino and invite all of my degen friends on here to come and play...
