Pretend the $20 million is guaranteed, and if anything will increase slightly over time.

What problems could be significantly improved for $20 million?

(I am dreaming of winning the $1.55 billion Powerball drawling. Then taking the lumpsum, posting taxes, investing, and spending 4% each and every year. I understand that the actual may be more, or less than the started amount.)

      Don’t understand why you’re getting downvoted when this was literally the first thought I had when reading the post title. I’d genuinely be stressed if I randomly got that kind of money

        The huge jackpot is one reason not to play. People get crazy for $1,000. A billion is “goodbye whatever life you had” money, regardless of you want to or not.

        The concept of having $20MM in my lifetime, never mind actually spending that much annually, is insane.
