Beer store has these ticketsReply
i relayed your comment to chad g. petey. he said billy willy's beer store sells $8 scratchers where the top prize is beer for life paid out as a 37 year annuity. he also said the odds of winning are 1 in pineapple. none of that sounds correct, but you are very loyal to chad so i'll let you work it out.

$1.25 BILLION: Mega Millions jackpot set to deliver unimaginable wealthReply
If someone won the jackpot in a state that doesn't tax the lottery, and they opt for the annuity - they will take home 851M. If someone won in New York and took the annuity, they would take home 704M. A whooping 147M difference The 147M is like another jackpot altogether. Wow, all I can say is wow.

$1.05 BILLION: Mega Millions keeps rolling after no winner FridayReply
Cash value is 50%. I remember the good ole days of 60-70% cash value. Never would I take the annuity. Always take the cash, take the hit now.

$910 MILLION: Mega Millions lottery jackpot making another historic runReply
I play PB, MM, MB in Massachusetts. I would take the annuity option if I hit the big jackpot for Friday. Put it in a trust or llc and continue to live life to the fullest and simple terms. Not very materialistic but would help family to a good point . Travel and see the world making memories along the way!

The cash value is actually not bad more than half of the annuity. But of course that is looking at it backwards, which is explained in this video .

$820 MILLION: Massive Mega Millions drawing set for TuesdayReply
No the cash option is based on actual ticket sales, and the annuity is affected by interest rates. However, it is my understanding that after the previous drawing, the interest rates fluctuating would not affect the next jackpot, because the rate is locked in at that point.
