Would you still work if you come across wealth which will last you for your lifetime with luxury living.. Although it may seem easy to answer on the first thought it really changes my opinion the more and more I think sbout it.. First I think I will not work then I think can I just lead my life without working at all. Will I enjoy the spending my money without working at all...

I think I will still work...but try to put up my own company instead even if it is very small...perhaps I will dovote most of my time doing R&D...discovering new technologies and knowledge that will help mankind.

I would still work, but I would certainly not work as much, and I would do the types of work I WANT to do instead of being stuck in a job all the time...

I definitely would NOT work. But I would find things to do with my time! I would work a lot on my photography. It would be nice having more time to spend taking pictures instead of having to work! But mostly, I would spend my time volunteering. I currently do a lot of volunteer work with animal rescues. And if I had more free time, I could do a lot more. I would also probably branch out and volunteer in other areas. It would be great if I could live comfortably without having to work so that I could use my time to help others. I definitely could not sit around doing nothing all day. But I would love to have the extra time to spend on my hobbies and volunteering.

for me, i would still work. i will invest the money i have in a business that would help a lot of people. i will be able to provide work for these people plus providing food for their families. i will not only enjoy my wealth by myself but i could share it with others. if that money grows, my children and grandchildren would be able to enjoy it as well. i hope i could have that money...

Well for me I don't think i can stand it to sit back and enjoy all the money i have, I mean I will feel bored and obviously with nothing to do then i might get old sooner than I wanted to be, because just sitting, eating and doing nothing is bad for everybody's health. Even if I'm really having that enough to keep me and my family alive for a life time then I would still need something to keep me busy. I'm a hard worker and just sitting at home would really make me feel uncomfortable at all

For me it's yes. To make my life a purpose. To share what I got to others and to serve others as well. But what if some sort of evil work?... well, I not into that.

This is why I don't play the lottery. I would want to help out my entire family but, if I was supporting everyone, what would we do? We'd eventually run out of things to do and be unhappy. If I didn't help out my entire family they would think I was stingy and would be upset with me. So, I would rather stay where I am and let my family take care of themselves...and if I win a small amount of money, I'll take them all someplace fun.

Very good question, and for me it depends what kind of work is involved. I definitely would not work in retail, food, factory, etc. I would probably still like to work as a college professor. And I would enjoy being a lifetime student.
