Statistics show it's literally best NOT to take the lump sum and that most people have no self control.

As i said

unless you have very bad self control and would blow through the money.

Which is why you can work with a financial advisor and other wealth management strategies to set yourself up for success.

But yes, lots of people have lack of self control but if you're going to throw around big words like statistics then show those receipts. And i mean actual studies not an article pulling numbers out of their ass.

Statistics is a “big word”?

[-] nimble 15 points 3 days ago

No, but it has meaning. So claiming statistics without said statistics is just speaking out of your ass

[-] Confused_Emus@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 3 days ago

Ah, big as in meaning, not just “difficult big word.” Misread, and totally agree.
