If you had a Choice which winnings would you take?

i take the 10-20 millions dollars and only have my winnings reported on the lottery website, instead of winning a huge jackpot and be all over the news.

quick, name a 100m lottery winner...


bet most people couldnt think of one, let alone all the winners.

winning a huge amount will put you in the news for a couple days, but after that, you could probably live as happy and quiet life as a 10m winner...

10-20 since no one would harass you about $$$, like the guy in WV who won like 100mil and already was robbed multiple times and drugged once for the $$

Hmm.. I'd probably go with the 10-20 and get Nissan S15 Silvias (240sx) legalized for the US. I'd continue on with life as normal, just without the big worry over money.

With $100m I could fund more interesting projects, like buying the rights to X-Com and Jagged Alliance (especially since the company working on Jagged Alliance 3 just went bankrupt :( ).

But he (the guy in WV) is the idiot. You don't go out drinking to strip bars with $500,000 in your SUV.
You don't invite low lifes and drug users over to your home when they all know you have money laying around.

I would take the 100 mil. Crap they dont call it 15 min of fame for nothin, the media storm would be over so fast and no one would remember.

I would take the 100 Mil, and retire happily on my own mountain in the Colorado Rockies.
