I like that you have provided these records sorted by cash value. Even if one likes annuities, and I don't, the true value is measured by cash.

dvidva, if you ever do record jackpots of the World thread, make sure only include the top 15 with cash option first. If you ever do record jackpots of the North America thread, make sure only include the top 15 for cash value and top 15 in annunity (separate).

I understand a post can be edited shortly after it is posted. Can it be deleted by the poster shortly after it is posted

Maybe annuity prizes should be outlawed. Winners can always purchase their own annuities anyway.

Euro Millions winners automatically get lump sum. Anyone who chooses annuity should have to forfeit their prize

Also every winner so far except the OH winner who is unknown has chosen cash. Still waiting for someone to choose the annuity. A sure sign they never talked to any advisors.

Needed a refresh. Record Jackpots as of 3/5. The Big Game is Megamillions predecessor.
