    I thought about this too. Surely not a million.

    She also stated that she bought each of her 3 children homes with the first winnings. This million is just for her.
    Taking a lump sum as you pointed out does reduce the payout, then take the tax away from what's left we are talking what? $600,000 give or take. Each of her children probably had to pay tax on the value of the houses as well and perhaps she covered that.
    I assume she went modest but in reasonable neighborhoods with the 3 houses but even so that would have left her with very little for herself and a nice piece of equity for her children.
    In all it seems that she isn't the greedy sort and given her age I don't think it too awful if she spent the rest, which after all the other stuff wouldn't be a huge amount, enjoying herself. She set her children up, they can make their own luck.
    I say good luck to her and she should enjoy life to the full with the new money, in the way she wants.






    But you are right, she is a lucky b****

    it’s an election with no Democrats, in one of the whitest states in the union, where rich candidates pay $35 for your votes. Or, as Republicans call it, their vision for the future.
