Hoarding money is an addiction, every option is ok no need to worry about the pennies
The 6% test is very helpful.

Great advice and shorthand math trick. Mine only returns 4% give or take. But, I'm significantly younger. ie. starting age for annuity. guess I'm taking the lump sum.
Wes I'm in the UK just love your channel
This man has millions and he can't seem to figure out what to do with 138,000?
Solid advice. No money reserve take the lump sum. Already have a war chest then take the annuity and count it as further diversification.
I've been offered a lump sum or an annuity and the company that I work for is pushing me towards taking the lump sum by manipulating the numbers based on my age and tax status as it relates to the amount that I will receive. I don't have any liquid assets like the gentleman you spoke with, so I think I should take the lump sum and invest! Yes Mr. Moss I do want to retire sooner rather than later, life is too short to continue to make others rich now it's my turn. I'll be the first in my family to be able to retire, the rest of my family is either dead or dead broke!!!
Take the annuity excellent return.
It all depends on other assets the man has. If the man has limited wealth then the annuity is the way to go. This man has other income streams that can withstand a market shock.
In this man's case, it seems it is best to take the lump sum. When he and his wife die the lump sum balance is there to pass on to the kids and grandkids. The annuity option leaves nothing.
Take the lump sum and stick in your checking , you have enough in investments and both are going to be collecting SS
