Yeah, I'd do it. I'd rather enjoy spending money the now when I can enjoy it, rather than live to 95 and spend the last of my meager life savings on Polident, Depends, and pain medication.
I'm 37 I've got 25 years till I can retire using that critereon working 40 hrs a week for 48 weeks a year I would work almost 6 years.
So I'd be losing only 4 years. You young uns would prolly make up the ten.
My wife disagrees though
First you call Ms. Cleo and determine when you are going to die. If it's 80 or more then it's a no brainer, cash in and 'check out' before anyone has to change your diapers for you. 75 would knock you to 65 and in this day and age 65 isn't old anymore and the decision is tougher - especially already knowing what Viagara can do for you in the golden years. 70 goes to 60 and if my son procrastinates with procreation like I did (31) then I wouldn't see any grandchildren.....or at least none that I know of. $5 mil for 5 years is a much easier proposition so Skoorb, good statistical approach on the 10/10.

$10 million isn't even that much money, the house I want to buy is already more than $5 million, so I say no to this deal. But if the deal was $10 billion for 10 years off your life, then I might consider.
I voted "no" without giving it much thought. 10 years is a very long time and a big chunk of your life. To give it up completely, for lousy money?! Forget it.
