| I'd take the lump sum. There are things on my list that I'd rather have *right now*, like:- A nice house somewhere pleasant, with a nice roof I can put some couches on and have a barbecue.
 - A badass telescope, also on said roof.
 - All the "L" lenses my camera can stand.
 - A nice car
 - Some premium-quality musical instruments, and lessons for using them well
 - A comfortable life for all my family
 
 When it comes down to it, I doubt I'll be able to just sit there and not work. I'd start a business of some sort, which will be very viable considering I can invest decent sums into it, and will hopefully leave me with a very comfortable life long after the lump sum has been squandered on the material things.
