$750 million. Lump sum. By the time that's lump sum discounted and the state and fed taxes are finished with you, you'd have around 325 million in your pocket. I'd have a charitable trust funded with about 50 million and work with Mike the Dirty Jobs guy to hand out scholarships...Oops, I mean my sons and grandsons would work with Mike. I'd put about 75 million each into 2 family revocable trusts, one each for our two sons. That leaves my trust with 200 million to divvy up a little with our 4 grandsons and 2 great granddaughters as long as they decided not to turn into nitwits. Then a nice estate on Lake Charlevoix in northern Michigan. A nice large old house in Old Town in Key West. A couple of decent boats for Charlevoix and KW. I'm good to go. Oh and a membership in a modest sized charter jet to get back and forth from KW and Charlevoix.
The best thing about the lottery is not in the winning. It's in the daydreaming about what you'd do if you did win. Heck, I rarely even have one number...if I even bought a ticket.
