    Instead of taking out the lump sum, you can have it paid in installments, they probably asked for lump sum, thus they get a much lower value.

    Then you can do the math of whether or not it’s worth it to receive monthly payment or taking out the lump sum, paying off all your debts, then putting it into S&P 500 and drawing down 4% a year and never run out of money.

    At 400 million, that’s what, 16 million a year? Never have to work again a day in their life, can spend 365 days a week in a 5- star hotel at a 1000-2000 dollar a night a 250 thousand car every year and haven’t even spent 1/16 of his yearly liquidation.

      Thanks for your comment. People keep forgetting that even a couple of million would be enough for you to never work a single day in your life and have a nice middle class life. 400m is just the equivalent of 200 “comfortable middle class lives, forever”

        We don’t forget that, the comments are pointing to the fact that any rich person that got 2 billion through investments would end up paying less, no one is saying that 400 millions are not enough.
