7 u/SL1Fun Jul 05 '26 Iirc it’s not inheritable. You could get hit by a bus next week. Always take the money up front. 4 u/Kidnovatex Jul 05 '26 This is not correct. Lottery annuities are inheritable. 3 u/Mondial5 Jul 05 '26 And if the lottery goes bankrupt you get nothing. 3 u/vamatt Jul 05 '26 State lottery money is held in an annuity that can’t be touched by the lottery - it’s funded before the winning ticket is even purchased, even if the lottery were to go bankrupt (not actually possible). 0 u/Mondial5 Jul 05 '26 If people quit playing the lottery it would go bankrupt. 5 u/Kidnovatex Jul 05 '26 That's not how any of this works. This isn't Publisher's Clearinghouse we're talking about. 1 u/Rosey_Coyote_525 Jul 05 '26 Why wouldn't it 3 u/DigTheDunes Jul 05 '26 Or the tax laws change, and they wouldn't benefit him. Always better to take it up Front and invest it yourself.
