No, no, no. You get the entire amount. The lump sum payment is after taxes. The annual installments are after taxes. You get a "check" for the amount either way. It's just that one way you have an guaranteed income for thirty years, and the other way you have a large sum of money to use, maybe invest. I would choose the lump because I don't know what the tax rate will be in the future, and I would worry that the government would renegotiate the deal if they were desperate.
