Yeah but not at stupid crap that makes money.

I'd work on my many projects I've always wanted to do but are too expensive, time consuming or risky, like making video games and designing handheld PCs, CPUs, etc.

Absolutely but it'd be shit that I actually want to do and it would not be 40hrs a week.

I'd probably still work in some capacity. Likely just volunteering somewhere a few times a week.

As others have said, I wouldn't do what most would consider a traditional job. I'd explore all the hobbies that I never had the time or money to try. Hobbies can be a lot of work, but I guess they wouldn't be considered a job. I'd also be sure to finish my education first so that I'd have the proper credentials to research what I want when I wanted.

Nope, but I'd have plenty of active hobbies I could engage in.

I'd wouldn't do the work I'm doing now, but I'd certainly work on hobbies and maybe make some cash that way. Volunteering would also be nice.

Yea part time with people I like working with sure.

The happiest I've been in life was when I was working part time and didn't have to worry about rent and Bill's with plenty of free time to do whatever.

I dunno. Sitting home all day gets really boring really fast, eventually you are done with doing everything you can in and around the house. I'd keep working 1-2 days a week maybe, just to keep things varied.

Bit I'd take 2 months of to start with.

With that kind of money I'd open up my own record store. That's always been my dream job.

Although I'd definitely hire someone to deal with all the important stuff because I'd probably be drunk all day.

Yeah, as much of a useless drunk as i'm seen here on CE, I could never just do nothing with my life. I farm and whatnot to keep my mind busy outside of my career. I gotta do something always.
