Keep in mind that a million doesn't necessarily set you for life anymore, and that with a penny spent you'd no longer be a millionaire. If you came into one million dollars even, would you continue at your current place of employment?

If you became one million dollars richer, would you quit your job?

Yes I would up until I get my cosmetology license or put myslef through culinary school then, with money open my own beauty shop or catering business... still not sure which one I'd go for. Leaning towards beauty shop.

I'd change jobs but stay working in my field. I love what I do, just not necessarily where I do it or who I do it with, all the time, so a million would set me up to
A. Have no worries about paying for my daughter's college education and
B. Be able to make a career move and/or relocate and set myself up to be where I'd eventually like to be in life.

I have already taken a 25% pay cut and am on the verge of losing my job anyhow, so a million bucks would come in handy.

Sorry about that! I don't think I'll ever feel secure in a job again either. Anyway, no, just $1,000,000 isn't enough for me to stop working just yet but at least I would be able to retire.

After taxes? As much as I would like to, no. But I definitely wouldn't give a shit about the people there and my tongue around my managers and co-workers would get a little loose.

I would quit. Then someday maybe return to work when under more convenient circumstances.
