$820 MILLION: Massive Mega Millions drawing set for TuesdayReply

North Carolina woman wins $1 million lottery prize a week after buying houseReply
Dear North Carolina, please, PLEASE tell me where I can get a 20 year annuity that pays $1,000,000 for just $600,000! Florida pays $820K lump sum to its million dollar winners instead of 25 years at $40K per year.
