$7.35/gallon is €1.79/liter, which based on this page with data from a bit over a week ago is about middle of the pack, but pretty cheap if you’re just counting the richer countries that are probably more comparable to California in particular.

Easy. Start with The Orville, then watch Galaxy Quest.

Only thing they missed was a popup asking me to please not leave if I move my mouse near the top edge of the tab.

I was hoping someone in the comments would have linked to the scene but I will instead: https://youtu.be/M58aP5DtNqY?t=165

Whoops 🙃 At least I gave the numbers a disclaimer right afterward. Maybe $7 million would be more realistic.

If you have something like a structured settlement from a lawsuit where you receive periodic payments of $X every month, or an annuity that pays out $Y a month, or anything like that - over the entire duration of the settlement or annuity you’ll receive $Z total. JG Wentworth will give you some fraction of that $Z now, immediately, as a lump sum - and in turn all future periodic payments go to them. So you get a lot in the short term, but less than you would in the long term - and they get more in the long term than they gave you in the short term.

For a specific example, say you won $10,000,000 in the lottery, and it pays out of a 20 year annuity giving you $500,000 per year. JG Wentworth may give you $15,000,000 now in exchange for all future payments.

Those numbers are all completely made up - I don’t know what kind of percentage they take.

They put out commercials like this. There are loads of them - hence the meme.
