What would you choose?

Someone locally won 7 million on cash 4 life ticket. They have to choose 1000 a day for life or a lump sum of the 7 million. Someone mentioned that if he/ or she is young the 1000 a day for life would be the way to go but if they were older the lump sum may be the way to go. I would take the 1000 a day. What would you choose?

The 7 million. The lump sum is almost always the way to go.

If you live at least 20 more years you’ll end up with more taking the 1000 a day, of course that doesn’t take into factor any investments with the lump sum

I would probably go with the lump sum. We already have a steady income and live comfortably... nowhere near 1000 a day of course, but we couldn't possibly need that! It would be great to spend more freely and buy property in some of our favourite areas.

I'd do lump sum. Invest in 20 acres as close to off the grid as we can get here. Build a house sufficient for my family and a foster kid or 2 because I've always wanted to foster.
Invest the rest.

Probably the lump sum.

Lump sum. I'm in Illinois. I'd be afraid the state would go BK and I'd not end up getting paid.
