NO!! but I must say I don't work now   ::)   I have a back injury and I am trying to get disability but was turned down last month  :(  I am going to reapply.  Thankfully I am married to a wonderful man that takes care of me so I don't have to work.  I do all I can online to make some spending money ...just for me.

Depends on how much I win...if I was to get a job it'd be after I've enjoyed/saved/invested my money. It'd be part-time in something I absolutely LOVE doing.

I'd prolly take a looooong break from working, go on vacation, try things I've never done before because they cost money, then I'd head back to work and occasionally do things that require lots of money that I dont normally do

I think I would take a leave of absence for a while but would have to get back to work after a while. It would be nice to want to work and maybe be able to do what I wanted to do, like my own business, instead of feeling like I have to work just to make paycheck to paycheck.

If I won a few million, first.....I'd pay my tithes, set up trust funds for my 3 grandsons. Donations would go to the Mission Field, Women's Shelter, and the Paralyzed Veterans. Then....travel the world the rest of my life with no financial worries.

I would definitely start my own craft business and live in a world of bliss.  Of course I'd spend most of my time spoiling my grandkids & traveling - but then down to serious business when I'm home - crafts!!!

If I won the lottery, I would probably volunteer somewhere just to keep busy. But then if I had money I could afford to go do things. Hmmm tough question. I think I would go back and finish college, and then volunteer. Plus I would have enough money to get my online business going .

I love this question... seems like everyone asks it! I think I would take some time off to travel and get things in order (get a lawyer first) and then get a part time job to keep some type of "normal" life.

I would stay home and work on my computer still - because that's what I enjoy doing.

Would work but by choice thats completely different the stress would not be there of how will i put food on the table, but i think working makes you feel good and from getting bored but part time i dont know i cant say maybe i would not work who knows i think you have to be there but who knows people who win the lottery get in debt a lot so may have to work harder
