I'm assuming you have a structured settlement. If you are as minor the answer is no. If you are an adult you might be able to sell your annuity to an outside company for pennies on the dollar. For instance if you have a $100,000.00 annuity that provides for payment in 2022 you might be able to sell it to an outside company for $10-20,000. If you do this you are a fool. This money was pout into an annuity to protect you from squandering the money which is exactly what it sounds like you are trying to do.
