Would you choose $5 MILL in one check today, or $7.5 MILL paid over 5 years?

If you won a lottery or raffle of some kind.

i would assume the future value at the end of the 5 years is more if you choose the 7.5 huh? I'm not gonna do the math.

5 now and let me build it up to more than 7.5

5 mil now. I'd throw that in the stock market. Let it ride baby.

It would depend on the interest I could gain over 5 years on the 5 mill.

$7.5M
You'd have to make some real risky and CORRECT investments to get a 50% return over 5 years. Make it 10 or more years and I'd have to think it over a little more.

5 million today no tax? I could use it wisely and expand it up to at least 9 million over 5 years.

You would probably need to get more than 50% return.
Because you could make those same investments with each 1.5 you get each year if you chose the 7.5M plan.

Do you mind investing my 401(k) for me then?

how are you going to triple it? magically? Or by putting it all on black?
