George wins $990,550 (after taxes) in the lottery and decides to invest half of it in a 10-year CD that pays 3.35% interest compounded bi-yearly. He invests the other half in a retirement account that averages 7.75% interest compounded annually over the 10-year period. How much money will he have altogether in the two accounts at the end of the 10-year period?
