I think that a $1 Million lottery win means that you still have to work at something if you want to actually have a reasonable standard of living for a family. I think it means you can retire earlier, or possibly put your self out of debt.
$5Million should allow you to quit working for the man, but i think you would have to do some work for your self to ensure that you are making reasonable money on your winnings.
$20Million - I think that you can live off the interest/investment income well enough to not worry about anything (assuming you don't spend it all on hookers and blow).
At anything more than $5Million, I wouldn't be doing a desk job, and most likely would work for myself ensuring my lottery winnings helped earn more cash.
I agree with GreenTeaFrapp - the reason to buy a lottery ticket isn't for the stellar gambling odds, but to enjoy the daydream.
