The ratio depends on the return interest rate of government bonds. Jade is usually good at doing math calculations, but I've got no idea what insights those recent graphs are supposed to be offering. That run in the first graph that looks normal shows a range of a maximum of 7% more than the low annuity value of 211% of the cash. In the second one with the sudden drop has a range with a maximum of only 3.96% over the lowest annuity value of 219.8%. What both of them show are the perfect

Massachusetts Lottery introduces $50 scratch-off ticket with $25 million top prizeReply
Bad deal. They force you into an annuity. It may be slightly more than what the usual annuity is but they force you into it and not many want it because they are too old for an annuity or just want all their money for a 50.00 scratch ticket play. Pass on this lemon of a scratch ticket.

$944 MILLION: Mega Millions lottery jackpot set to make holiday wishes come trueReply
I think you've got a tenuous connection with reality. The most recent jackpot to make it past $1.5 billion (annuity value, of course) was the 10/11/23 PB jackpot that got to $1.765 billion. The cash:annuity ratio for that one was even worse than the current MM jackpot (43.86% vs 44.89%) so that annuity value of 1.765 billion required even fewer tickets to be sold than what we'd need to see the same advertise jackpot today. The progression for that jackpot was $1.2 billion (probably pretty close
