will you QUIT your JOB in you WIN millions in LOTTERY?

i would definitely quit my job. my best friend and i have a deal to share equally any winnings that we might get. we would travel, then perhaps open a clothing store that would take into account all the things that we love and hate about shopping. oh and of course help out our families!

Since I am retired I am going to buy a house with some of that money then am going on a cruise to the british Isles and when I return I will built a gorgeous garden with all sorts of things in it. I will buy my son a decent car and we will split the money right down the middle and it will go into savings accounts and we will stock up on food and pay off all bills and then return to our old habits most likely. if we won the lottery thatis

Yes, there are a number of reasons why I would quit my job if I won the lottery, and most of them are practical and necessary. The main reason for quitting my job is that having won the money, why would I wish to hold on to a job that someone else could then have? That's rather selfish. Secondly, no matter how one might pretend that winning the lottery won't make a difference to one's life, it will, as night follows day, no matter how 'normal' one will try to live after the win. Other people will make sure one has to change. To begin with, winning the lottery is a major gift and should be appreciated. Many people tend to suffer from guilt after winning big sums by hardly living any differently and fearing that they might appear 'flash' or 'stuck-up' to their friends and neighbours. But the best thing one can do with such good fortunes is to give thanks, donate some of it to others, pamper relatives and close friends, then move away from the district to somewhere where one is not known and one can start a new life in privacy. That's the only way one would be able to lead any kind of normal existence, living among people with money too who do not know how you got yours and how much you have. That action is important because money causes envy and jealousy. No matter how people try to ignore it, or pretend not to notice someone else's good fortune, when it happens to a close friend or neighbour, all sorts of psychological effects come into being. Friends begin to worry that you might think they are now interested in your money; neighbours start watching how you are going to deal with it, and whether you will get above yourself and snooty, how much you will spend, whether you will be mean or generous, what you will give away and how you will deal with it. No matter how much you might try to act as you have always done before, having millions in your bank which other people know about is guaranteed to change their attitude towards you when they have so little. It's human nature if you are struggling and your relative just came into money. Difficult to know how to treat them. So the best thing is always to give up the job within a week, without too much fuss, gather friends and families around you for drinks and presents, and get the hell out of there to a new life of comfort and fulfilling your dreams! To give thanks for your windfall by making the most of it.

Yes! Yes! A thousand times yes! Take the job and shove it.

Well, if i win $150 million in a lottery, I definitely would quit my job. But I would like to keep a low profile. I'd thank God for the wonderful blessing he had given me. Then, I'd put split the $50M dollars for safekeeping in different banks. The rest of the $100M would go to the following: 1.Look for prospective business and investment ventures (includes local and foreign stock exchange, investment portfolios etc)-- 60% of the money would go to this.. 2.Go back to school to get an MBA. 3.Buy a more spacious home at a better community for me and my parents. 4.Buy cars(for me and my family) 5.Traveling and shopping 6.Insurance for myself and my family (I'm still young and single, so that would be for my parents and younger bro) 7.Set aside a trust fund for my younger bro and niece 8.Start my own business. 9.Contribute to health and welfare charities and NGOs I'm going to keep watch of my investments to make sure that I profit from it.

i'm still studying but if i won millions... well, i will not quit studying, in fact i want to study at harvard... and i want to have a business to hire many people to have jobs so they would earn money

I would certainly quit my job if I had that much cash! I would possibly still look for something else to do which I would enjoy but I wouldn't have to do it. I could think of a lot of things to do. I'd spend more time with my kids, maybe buy a house or two, travel the world, learn to fly a helicopter. And lots more. I'd also invest in some local groups, theatre, kids activities, that sort of thing and I'd get involved with them... I don't think I'd get bored anyway.

Money is freedom! You work to be able to live, hopefully not because you know nothing better to do. Some safe investments will pay enough so you can live off the interest or dividends, and the principal should be growing at least so that it stays even with inflation. Most people are so financially ignorant, that big windfalls like that ruin their lives. Also, most financial advisers have NO idea what should be done. They usually suggest a up front payout. WRONG. By getting it over 25 to 30 years, you lower your taxes, and with the income stream you can always buy a lump sum (loan) that gets paid out of the income stream... Taxes are only paid on the yearly annuity.

I will for sure! I will invest my money, study what's best for business and start working on it, travel with my family and husband, give capital to my family to start also investing, support a charity, and just enjoy life everyday with my loved ones!

Hi dear well if i get the lotery, i will sure put resign and give proper time for that. it does not mean that i wont work, i will do work but my own business and employeee other people And with that , i will travel as well, Take care

well if i win $1m i am sure the first thing i will do is go into hiding and think out very deep what i can do with the money so that i can increase or multiply it and not decrease it,i will never want to squander it,it can be a little difficult not to quit your low paying 9-5 job but i guess your boss himself will ask you to go if he is not earning so much himself,but am sure an investmen advise will be my first option before quitting my job

Hey yes I would quit my job if I won the lotto.

It would depend on how much I won if I was going to quit my job. If it was less than 10 million then I probably wouldn't quit. I would reduce my work hours but not quit altogether. If it was over 10 million then yeah, that's more than I could expect to earn in my lifetime so I would ring the boss and tell him to shove the job where the sun don't shine ... Of course, I would wait until I had the money in my hand before doing that though. What I would do then is pay off all my debts and purchase several investment properties. Most likely a block of apartments since they are generally cheaper than houses but the rental income isn't much cheaper than it is for a house. I'd have a real estate agent to manage the property so I didn't have to worry about the day to day issues of collecting rent etc and then I would live off the rent that was coming in. Of course, I would have to make sure that I had some interests outside the house to keep me from being bored. But I would probably dedicate more of my time at home in developing my internet business so I had an extra income stream. With only minor expenses (since I no longer had a mortgage or credit card debts) I would have plenty of income coming in to make sure that I could have plenty of holidays with the family etc.

The kind of job I have now? and being far from my family, I will surely quit. I am here for money so if I have money already, theres no need to bear the sacrifice of being alone and away from my love ones. I hope I will win soon, lol.

hi ruthinian! if i won millions in the lottery i'd be quitting my job too! i will also travel the world because that is my greatest dream! there's a lot of places i want to visit and i need lots of money for it! and then i would buy everything that i like! i would also buy stuffs from my family and relatives. and since money will not always be there, i would invest on something that would make my money profit more. i might buy stocks or build a business or something.

I would quit one of my jobs.....I would quit my call center job , but I will always be a writer no matter how rich I become.

I will still stay on my current job. Money is a big thing but it cannot replace my passion. I like my current job and I'll just invest my money if ever I won in lottery. Many people forget their previous situations when they already have money. Investing it is better than spending it. I would invest instead of buy.

If I win a lottery for $150 M..I will quit my job...for sure..lol. I will use 30 percent of that as an investiment for starting my own business....and remaining 70 percent will be for a combination of spending as well as saving.Because the value of the money lies in how much one can spend.

well... id still finish skool and get job and do it for the experience.

yes..ofcourse
