Would you continue to work or quit your job?  If you would continue to work, how big would the jackpot have to be for you to stop working?

I like college, but I think if I won the lottery I might drop out and go try to do something cool.  Like travel the world, or put the money towards something good that I was also involved in.  A friend of mine is in Bangladesh right now helping to set up the foundations to have unions in the future and I think doing something like that and putting the money into it would be really cool.  If I didn't have to worry about money, I could go all over the world and work on projects, see things, and give them money.

I would get a fluff job or maybe work at a dream job. I would in no way stay working where I'm at now or might end up after I graduate.

I'd quit and lead a purely hedonistic life, and love it too.

Who voted to work at their current job and what are you doing?

i would give them one month's notice and then pursue my dream of owning a boutique. though i am a tad concerned about what i would do for health insurance. but i guess if i win the lotto i could afford to pay retail for a doctor.

I would keep working just to keep money coming in. I would work far less hours than I do now though...

I would probably continue working for awhile at my current job which I love. I would probably end up working at a non profit doing what I love and that is helping teenagers develop leadership skills. Oh and I would definitely buy at least 1 chanel bag that I have been lusting over and a Kelly bag.

I would never work again.  But I would take college classes in fashion, Shakespeare, sociology, stuff I like.  And I would not worry about getting good grades or even graduating.  I just like to learn.  I'd volunteer A LOT too. Sigh, I wish I would win...

I chose work part-time.. I am liking my new job.. and thinking realistically.. I would prob enjoy some time off but I would get bored and look for something else to do during the day.

I would patronize the arts and become a more well-read and learned person. No worries about grades, though. Maybe I would write in my spare time, or play music and just be more creative.

I would quit my current job and still work but not quite as hard.  Possibly do some charity work.

I would continue doing what I currently do, but I would buy a really nice vacation home to use for "de-stressing".  I am one of those people that gets bored if I have more than two days off at one time, so there is no way I could quit.


Also love, love, love my job.  I work for a software company and get to travel all around the world keeping clients happy, helping them configure software, upselling, etc.  Basically, I am a "professional schmoozer".  It's a tough job, but somebody has to do it

I'd work part-time so I could maintain my medical benefits, but would volunteer my time @ the Alzheimer's Association.
