Re: If you won the lottery........
I'm unemployed, but if I won the lottery, I'd stay that way! But, I'd continue to volunteer, and encourage DH to keep his job.

Re: If you won the lottery........
I won $4 on Sunday... I am going to hang on to my job.
I would quit depending on the amount I win. I would invest and live off the interests.

Re: If you won the lottery........
I think I would hang on to my job until I figured out what I wanted to do. I actually like my job.
ETA: Eventually I would start a theatre company.

I'd quit that day.
Same here!
I would then take some of the money I won and fund the opening of an animal shelter - then, I would spend my days running it!

Re: If you won the lottery........
I say that I still would work.
But it would be for Fun instead of for Work.
My Husband would quit in a second. He would like to open up a Hobby Shop.

Re: If you won the lottery........
I would but I would move to social services and use my money and my time and my skills to help children. Tonight's news told of a man who covered a 17 month old child in vegitable oil and then held a hairdryer on hot to his skin for 30 minutes. I want to stop that. I want to punish that and i want to love that baby and spend the rest of my life making it up to that child. I hope and pray that at 17 months that child retains no memory of tongiht.

Re: If you won the lottery........
I would keep my job until my boss found someone to replace me, of course I'd arrive by limo everyday!!!
I have always said I'd make a signifigant donation to a local charity first. I'd love to be able to fund a mobile dental clinic to treat local children & seniors. Next I'd buy the acerage on the North Fork that I've been dreaming of, build a huge barn or two, a house for us, house for my Mom & Gram & cottages for guests all solar & wind powered and start the organic farm and bed & breakfast. I could see myself doing animal rescue too, specifically farm animals.
I have a few friends that have had really difficult financial times, I'd love to assist them in some way without it just being about money. I'd offer them jobs & a place to live on the farm or maybe help them to start their own dream business.

Re: If you won the lottery........
Depends. Spread out over 40 years, 1 million = $25k/year, so you would need at least 5 million ($125k/year) to even start thinking about leaving work (no health coverage under Lottery.... ).
10 million+, I would leave work and help DW at home with DC. If we won enough to invest, DW always said she'd like to open up a Tea Shoppe, or something similar. Low-key, breakfast and lunch only.
I'd probably go into house flipping. If that was my "job", and I wasn't investing every last dime I had into each house, it would be less stressful.
