honestly i don't like to leave things on the table, since that $.35 % wise could end up being alot of $ should we win

so i send another $.75 thinking it'll cover the $.35. nope not enough again...........damm paypal.......lol

their is a $.30 fee on top of 2.9%

anyways, is that weird that i don't want to leave $ hanging? my workmates think i'm crazy for thinking like that, they think basically 'it''ll come out in the wash'...........

That's why you select "gift."

I'd like to thank you in advance

$10 in tickets for myself and our work pool is half the company ( 10 people ) at $5 a person.

Est. Annuity $640,000,000
Est. Cash $462,000,000

So you take the cash option and even after taxes, it would be over $300 million.

As crazy as it sounds, that would be too much money. You'd always have to keep an eye out for your personal safety and nothing would ever be normal again.

I could make the extra 340 million back in interest over 20 years, so yeh I would take the lump sum

Not its not weird. You might not know the people in the pool and some could get greedy and want the part not paid for. Or you cousin could get gold fever and want what he paid for.
