lumps sum after taxes pays her $240,600

weel with todays high yield savings accounts just 140,000 invested with 14% or as high as 16% after 10 years

watch this

year 1 19,600.00 + 140,000.00 = 159,600

yr 2 22,344.00 + 159600.00 = $217,944.00

yr 3 30512.16 more than the 25 k per month = $248,456.16

yr 4 34,783.86 + 248,456.16 = $283,240.02 more than her lump sum after taxes of $240,600.00

yr 5 39653.60 + = $322,893.62

yr 6 45,205.10 + = $368,098.72

yr 7 51,533.82 + = $419,632.54

yr 8 $58,748.55 + = $478,381.09

yr 9 $66,973.35 = $545,354.44

yr 10 $76,349.62 + = $621,704.06

Those are the same as CD's, which are different than savings accounts

I do agree with you that it would be better to take the yearly option, especially if you're younger

[OldBill]

i know i read that these online banks only paid highest % but right now cant find who they are

[Optional]

I think I could turn 240k into more over 10 years than I could with 25k per year.

Would probably use it to flip property. And probably make more than the credit union pays in annual capital gain, even before rental income or improvements to up the value.

It depends on her situation I think.
If she has a solid understanding of what she is to do and that game plan is sound, good for her.
But if not, 25k a year can help keep her afloat added to a lower salary.
Really depends on her understanding the options, her level of education and keeping the sharks in her life away.
I hope she does for her sake.
Buying a new ride is hopefully not in her mindset.
