Lump sum payment or an annual payment


Problem: Many people, as evidenced by the large payoffs provided for picking 6 out of 53 (or more) numbers, play the lottery. The big choice the winners face: taking a lump sum payment today or an annual payment over 20 years. Is a dollar today worth more than a dollar tomorrow? Why or why not? Which do you prefer, the lump sum or the 20 year payment stream?
