I always told the guys at w*rk that if I ever won the lottery, I would keep working.....just to p*ss them off!!!
I would not w*rk indefinitely, but I would continue long enough.....maybe 6 or 8 months or a year....to really gripe their *sses!!! Of course NOW that I only have a short time til FIRE....I wouldn't stay even ONE day longer than my planned departure!!! NO Way...NO How!!! However, I also wouldn't leave earlier than planned either!

So does the media. I bet the stable lottery millionaires (admittedly this may be oxymoronic) are so boring that no one asks about them.Cute 'n Fuzzy Bunny said:
