I stumbled upon this while surfing a retirement article on Smartmoney.com Thought it was an interesting premise and all here would understand and enjoy the idea.

Did ya notice what the prize was for the winning entry? Yep - an annuity.

I wonder what the book's author thinks about that:

Annuities aren't so bad, as long as someone else is paying...

don't tell anyone, but I'm working on life 3.0 right now... it's taking a long time to compile, though.

Well, Genworth was sponsoring the award, so I guess. I DOUBT it's a immediate annuity, it probably is actuarily based as if the winner will live until 150, so the insurance company has little risk of losing money on him........
