I'm guessing that the reason is because he sees money as just that, money. Money may make things easier in life, but it can never buy a person true happiness or a good name. Kudos to him. ^_^ I don’t think he’s an idiot. $93 million is a whole lot of money that even if you don’t get any interest, you won’t normally be able to spend it all.

Idiot! I would quit my job, get the money and decide where to invest it, spend a few months figuring out how to manage money like that and then either go back to work part time for something I will truly enjoy or try out a few business ideas that are always rattling around in my head. I really don't know if my husband would quit his job or not. He also really hates when people ask him hypothetical questions so I may never find out!

I'd want to finish up my jobs as well before calling it quits. Did you read the article carefully? I think they had a third house that belonged to his wife where they lived after Katrina. Something tells me this guy did alright for himself over his 70+ years. I get the feeling he owns his own business. I’d want to finish up my jobs as well before calling it quits.

I'd give a two weeks notice at my job (which he thinks is unnecessary, but...); he would probably finish out whatever school term he's in. But - we would both be taking a day (or two, if necessary) off of work to go claim our money! My husband I have had this conversation.

No, I'd be taking a sick day the very next day to drive to the lottery office and take care of it!

I'm with you though, two weeks and I'd be gone! Maybe it depends on your type of job and not wanting to leave people in the lurch? I’m with you though, two weeks and I’d be gone!
