One Winner Steps Forward

Meet the McCullars from Washington they just stepped forward as being 1 of the 2 winners of the Mega Millions lottery. Their half of the winnings is $190 million! They can either take that in payments over the next 26 years OR they can go with the lump sum of $90 million. If you're counting that is $100 million dollars given back to the government in taxes. But then again once you get past so many million dollars does it really matter? They would still have $90 million! That has to be enough don't you think?
Play pretend for a moment.... Would you go with the yearly payments or the lump sum? How would you spend it?
