People can say they'd go into work the next day because they love their job in theory all they want. But I highly doubt there are very many people that would find out they won $50mil, be in a state of shock and disbelief, go out and celebrate with family and friends, and then say "well anyways guys, this was fun, but I gotta head'r, it's a worknight."  |
Pretty much. I think a lot of people would try, but it would take one bad day at work for you to quit. Don't most people think about quitting their jobs several times a day? Besides, I think your work relationships would change once people found out you won the lotto. It probably would be unpleasant working with people that resented you.
