Yes, Then an over sized Tux jacket can do the job.
I'd take the lump sum for sure. I'd give lots to some of my favorite animal and environmental charities. I'd send my mother off to Hawaii. Heck, I'd buy her a house in Hawaii. And she could use a new car too. I don't think that I'd upgrade our house, since it's just the right size, but I would get Master His dream car. Come to think of it, I'd have the kitchen remodeled. This house was built in the 60s and I absolutely hate the olive green countertops! Plus the kitchen is so small it can barely contain two people comfortably (three and we're all bumping into one another). I wouldn't change my wardrobe, because I'm a jeans and t-shirts kind of girl. I would go on a book and DVD shopping spree.
I think my biggest change would be a long trip to Ireland. That's where I want to go to most in the world. Other than that, I'd probably invest and save the rest of the money.
I have never given much thought to anything like this because I would not win a jackpot of this size, but I'd take the lump sum.
but, I'd buy a very cool large apt in NYC - large enough so that I could have an entire closet just for my lingerie, donate to worthwhile charities, hire a limo service for transportation, find some tax exempt investments and...vacation often.
Take the lump sum and do some safe investments.
I live in Fla so I would buy a second home in the mountains, N. Carolina or maybe out west somewhere.
Buy my mother a condo.
Retire.....effective immediately
Travel
I do some volunteer work with animals now, I would continue to do more with the free time. It's what I really enjoy but it wouldn't pay the bills.
