wartyh0g | Would you rather have $2.5million now or $25k/mth for 10+ years? |
The 2.5m would be after taxes. So essentially I am asking if you had an asset that netted $25k every month, would you be willing to sell it for 2.5 m net - if not what would you be willing to sell it for? |

Give me the lump sum today. The value of that monthly income is going to seriously erode due to inflation over the next ten years. With that much money to invest at this time when there are so many bargains out there in stocks of good, sound companies, it's an opportunity of a lifetime. |

You would take the 2.5 million now and invest it. 25k now is not the same as 25k in 10 years due to the time value of money. Kind of like how milk cost .25 cents however long ago and now its like 4 dollars. A dollar today is worth more than a dollar tomorrow. What you would sell it for depends on the interest rate over the periods but it would be less than 2.5 million. |

25k/month would be about a 1.5% annualized return on capital. You could do a lot better investing the 2.5m. Particularly with investment assets (stocks, real estate, commodities, etc.) as cheap as they are right now. |

25k a month would be more then enough for me.
With that kinda money and a market in a recession some wise investment decisions in market adjusted recession prices you could easily live comfortable and make bank for your future. |

All investments are risky but with this kind of money, even a CD at a trustworthy bank will yield plenty. I bank with USAA (which is NEVER EVER EVER going under, so FDIC concerns of a deposit over 100k are naught; besides, you can have 25 separate deposits of 100k each), and they have a 7 year CD that pays 5% and you can have the interest paid into a separate account. With 2.5 million deposited, this will yield just over 10 grand a month. And that's for as long as the 2.5 million is in the account (ie, for LIFE if you want it to be), not just 10 years. I'm 25 and expect to live another 60 years at least, so that's 720 months of 10k a month or just 10 years (120 months) of 25k a month. At the end of 10 years, you can have nothing or have 2.5m in the bank and STILL be getting 10 g's a month.
(Yes, interest rates will change. THey could go up, they could go down. I'm assuming a constant 5%) |

I like both the previous answers. 25K a month is plenty and I'd end up saving and investing most of it.
On the other hand, the scenario you described gives only a 20% increase on capital over 10 years. That's a very low rate and I know I could do better.
I would take the 2.5 million and invest it conservatively. I'd keep my personal expenses modest and keep most of the earnings reinvested.
A person could raise a family on that kind of money and live the grandchildren a very healthy trust fund eventually. |

No contest. Even with conservative investment, the front end 2.5 Million payment would far out-earn the monthly alternative. Not only this, one would have the money in-hand for family and dependent protection, vs. trusting others to administrate the future of dollars. As such, I would spread the funds among multiple firms for investment to further protect the money. So yes, I would sell the monthly asset for 2.5 Million. |
