quitting your job for a million bucks?

just wondering if anybody would do that or wouldn't because in the local news a local man just did it and in the comment section two comments were already like "really a million bucks and he quit, not a smart move" Thoughts?

Depends on your plan, I could do it, and live comfortably the rest of my life, even so, I'd have to downsize my lifestyle a bit, I'd be cool with that though

Hell yeah!
I would have to work for 20 years to earn that. Now if I made something like 150K a year it would be a different story

Yeah, I'd use that million dollars and work on getting a doctorate with the added bonus of being able to do it at my own pace and not burning myself out.
Then I could get a job I love and make back that money and more.

This, there is so much you could do with that money in the span of 6 to 9 years or so. Buy a house, travel around the world, and then hit up some college courses.

lol most definitely.
If I had a million dollars, I would have no bills and have multiple properties all over the world, growing my own food.

Tough call, not sure I'd do it.
I'd have to have a clause where I could just turn around and find another job.

Yeah for sure. I'm someone who thinks short term compared to long term. A million bucks and I don't have to work? That's a win win
My first purchase would be like a zip of blow. mmmmm

Hell yeah, I'd quit for a million. I'd quit for 100,000, but then again I hate my job.
