To get a lump sum payout typically involves foregoing monthly installment payments in lieu of a one time lump sum. Many people who win the lottery prefer to have a lump sum taken instead of monthly checks. Although it should be noted the lump sum is less money than if you were to add up all monthly payments, in the long run.

It is an amount that is paid at one time (in one big lump) rather than over a number of time periods.

Depends on what you choose to concerning payout or taking the lump sum.. If you choose payouts then you get the jackpot paid to you in 30 annual installments.. If you choose to take the lump sum instead you get only a percentage of the jackpot, not sure how much, but other states usually give around 50%... And don't forget that after you make your choice that income tax must be taken out of that and for the FL lottery they take 25% for taxes... Its all on the FL lottery page under questions and answers.. Hope that helps.
