Hell yes. I would be like Jay Leno and restore cars on the side.

Not instantly. I'd see for how long I could get away with doing absolutely nothing while also calling out management on their dumb ideas in the middle of meetings. I imagine I'd get fired before ever quitting.

No but it's a unique situation. My department will be closing by September of next year. I'd probably just see that through and then retire.

With enough money you can just travel anywhere you want so I don't really see how boredom would be an issue.

Idk. I do know my tolerance level would plummet.

I'm 100% telework, and always said I would quit if they asked me to go in at all. But being realistic, it's not like I can boldly do that day 1. I'd need to find another job 1st.

Now as a jackpot winner, I can now give my employer a respectful ultimatum immediately if they ever told me to report onsite. And really it would only be respectful because I like the people I work with.

My job can be completed 100% remotely, fuck mandated on site calls.

Fuck yeah. Screw working ever again under this capitalistic hell. I'd probably volunteer some, though.

Absolutely. I'm not one of those people that gets bored if they aren't working. I work because I have to.

Nope.

In this order:

  1. Pay off all debt
  2. Invest in a wealth advisor
  3. Put 80% into savings, 10% into a CD, and maybe 5/5 invest and fun money.
Keep working because I like insurance.

No, because I need that kinda structure in my day, personally. And you never know, maybe the income will be useful.

I would be very much less attached to it, though.

At least not right away. I mostly enjoy my job. But I could see myself trying to move to only part time if money was not an issue

For what its worth, a Wealthfront Cash Account is a higher yield than any CD Ive seen, and its just simple savings with no strings.

Assuming I could claim it anonymously sure. I like my job and it gives me something to do.
