If she takes a lump sum, she’ll probably get around $87.5 million.
If she takes an annuity, she gets about $5.8 million a year. How can anyone live on that?

QUaby. I think the annuity would be smaller, because taxes are still taken out at the same rate, right? And there is also the interest on the annuity.
