well... since $1 million would certainly make me very happy...

I'd choose A.  There's no chance, however remote, of winning nothing.

That opens up options C and D to a bit more leeway, so I'd choose D.

is this supposed to be an investing trick?

Does it make me a conservative investor with the bulk of my investments with a few risky possibly high-yield ones mixed in?
