$25 Million Privately. I’m afraid of getting robbed or held at gunpoint by random groups when the whole world knows I’m a Billionire and my name being public. Also, there isn’t anything that I want for a billion dollars that I couldn’t get with $25 million. Also, excluding Taxes in this conversation cause I can.
$1 billion then I buy my privacy in various ways. The difference between 1 billion and 25 million is so staggering that it'd be malpractice to ones family to not take the billion
I'll take the billion, because by the time it's made public I've won it? There'd be nothing left of me and my family but a vapor trail heading somewhere where we'd be all but impossible to reach. From that point, I can orchestrate and pay for security, burner phones, and anything else that'd be necessary to keep "friends" at a distance.
Chances are it would be in an investment account rather than a bank account. I work for an investment company and we do investments and trusts for people who get massive compensation payouts, for example.
I may be mixing up the terms but from what I understand rich people don't spend their money. They put it all in a trust or shell company and take out loans against the asset's worth.
Half is going to taxes so in reality the question is do you want $500 mil publicly or $13 mil privately. Both are awesome numbers, but this changes the equation considerably. Gotta take the 1/2 bil, set up some trusts and hire security.
Give me the billy and bring on the peasants. These people talking crazy about settling for 25m. Yes the first 2 weeks would be insane and scary but once they move on to the next story your life is just normal.
I feel like a billion could cover any short falls.
Unless you are the US government.
Really? You and your loved ones might get kidnapped the following week. Good luck with that.

The Warren buffet segment was worth it🤣🤣🤣
25 million definitely. You can still live a regular-ish life
Todd just went out and bought 400 dollars worth of Powerball tickets.
Oh no silly man it’s a tax on the poor but hey good luck !
I’ll take the 25M anonymously. I’ll leave the US go somewhere and live happily ever after.
Take the billion. The public attention would stop in about a week and you obviously could afford to enforce anonymity later.
😅😂🤣 Funny W. Buffet voice vs Tim Kurkjian
I'm taking the billion and getting ghost!!! My life would be changed forever!!!

what kind of question is this? give me the billion
Id rather win anonymously BUT with a billion dollars you could do so much good for your family and your community if you had thst much......
For your family?
Bro, just how much "family" you got????
Jesus H. Christ, the pure and unadulterated greed is real. GTFOH. 😅😂🤣

I would take a Hundred Million quietly - but a Billion over 25 Million easy. Those houses on Lake Tahoe aren't cheap.
I understand that rich people have their own problems, but having too much money is never one of them...
Might be safest to take the payments over the bulk amount.
Keep in mind if someone takes the $1B lump sum, after taxes it is "only" about 25-33% of the stated amount.
Not bad but not anywhere close to $1B
Anonymous. Always anonymous.
Is this seriously a question?
Use a separate company to pick up the billion and you're set.
1 billion publicly.
Is he crazy $25 million vs $1 billion (40x's more).. ? Buy 100 plus hours yearly from a Private Jet Company.. 🎯
Give me a billion…. I’ll take it lol
I would rather win 25 million anonymously
Herron?

You're definitely not an accountant.
And kiss peace of mind goodbye.
I just want 1 mill

25mil anonymous all day
$25M…easy choice
Give me the Billi
imagine passing up $975,000,000
rich people conversation
edit: about 400 mil after taxes i'm guessing lol
The government does not take 60% of ANYONE'S taxes.
This entire comments section is seriously in DIRE need of a civics lesson (or 100).
