Second, there are big tax advantages to the annuity. The main one is that taking the annuity is basically like letting the government hold onto part of your prize for a while and invest it for you and the government does not pay tax on investment income. Of course, once you get the annuity checks, youll have to pay income tax on them. But if you take the lump-sum cash prize, youll pay tax twice: on the prize when you win it, and on the income you get by investing it.
