Is there anyone out there that has received $ from the Jack Whittaker foundation ? I sent a request in July, but have not heard anything, and I know that they temporarily shut down the website to catch up on requests.Should I just kiss it goodbye

There is no way they are taking the annuity. But looking at the pictures it looks like they are all well in their 50's. If they take annuity they will have to live to be atleast 80 to get all the payments. I'm sure they are taking the cash option.
