Of course, the money would have to be substantual. I plan to live to age 120 so I will need enough money to last a long time.
I would give my job my two weeks notice, I owe them that much! They have been good to me.
I would then get up at 9 AM every day, stay up to midnight.
I now get up at 3 AM, go to bed by 9 PM.
I would take my family ALL THE TIME on vacation. And pay for everything for them. Nothing rich; just a van and a week or two here, come back home for a while, a week or two there, etc.

I would have to answer this by saying no i wouldnt quit my job......Im a daycare provider for 2 kids and I couldnt in good concious leave them because I came into a lot of money.
Coming into a big sum of money would be nice to pay off my bills, get a new home, go on vacations but it can never take the place of the love I get from the kids I watch.......the hugs, kisses, the fun we share......its something money cant buy .....as with any job sure there are the days where you are stressed out and things dont seem to go right but over all I do love my job and the kids I get to see and be with everyday.

Yes, if I were financially able to support my family, I would quit my current employment. I would do this so that I could open my own business and support my family in that way. I do enjoy my current line of employment BUT it is not my goal to stay at it.
I believe in setting goals higher up, why be satisfied with the level I'm at if I can reach a higher level. Not that I'm necessarily discontent but a challenge can be nice. Sometimes we reach a glass ceiling and the only way to break through and advance is to go on to another field.

Well, seeing as my job is my son, a large unclaimed sum of money wouldn't cause me to quit, but I would be quite happy.

I would only quit if I didn't like the job in the first place and if I had alot of money and didn't have to work I would help others, do some volunteer work.

Wouldn't quit because we own the company. Having more money would only improve the company, however, I would hire other people to run it, more qualified individuals that I could finally afford to pay...then I would expand and do the same for those businesses..Then, I would travel with my man.

No. I love what I do. Although......I'd probably pay off some things, buy some things I've always wanted, buy some farmland.....but I wouldn't quit my job. Working my job helps me keep my sanity, stay organized, think, and waste less time.
I'm a chemistry/physics teacher.

Of course I'd quit
Why work if you have so much money you didnt know what to do with it all
I would own my place of employment, then the little sh!t heads will work for me.
