Well first off chocolate and dogs are not a good combo, in high concentrations the chocolate will kill the dog.

And that's before we even get to the fact that you don't consider your dog might get run over crossing the street because he's trying to figure out what the hell you put that chocolate out there to kill him for ;)

Well, since I'd just end up blowing it all anyway, I'd take the payments and postpone the depression for ten years.

$100,000 per year for ten years please. If you know how much you make per year you can plan for that year. If you make 1 million for ten years it becomes a bit harder to keep to a certain amount per year!!!

Lump sum payable to a trust that I have no personal signing power on (complicated but avoids most income tax). Trust set up to invest it, and cover some of my basic living expenses.

wtf is an oprano?

i can invest the lump sum and come out with more by the end of 10 years.

bingo!
;-)))

meta,
fuck off,
this topic is for adults

at current rates you'd end up losing money.

I would take the million for sure and buy real estate in a fast growing area and double, triple my investment.

related to mafia ;)

funny how i asked wtf an oprano was and u didnt make a response. is it the english or the boat fee?

s oprano

oh yeah???

I give no more than 6 months for real estate to lose 10-20% of it's present value...

mortgages are up, sonny
;-))

did you say English???

you should know by now, son, what FUCK OFF means in English
;-))

Fuck OFF!
;_))

there are always deals to be made in real estate. but yes the boom is over.

I would choose $1,000,000 in one year... As there is no guarantee to live for another 10 years, considering fact of the world these days. :helpme

Take the 1 mil, invest it conservatively in tax-free bonds and earn $50k/year on it forever. That's a no-brainer.

Due to peculiarities with US law and especially how it relates to OFFSHORE accounts, I would have to take the 10 year plan--100K a year for 10 years.


Thank you very much (Latka Gravas voice)

the laws will change 7 times in 10 years and you might be dead from brain cancer in 3...
