Would you retire?

If I won that amount of money I do what my dreams are and do what I want to do 
Even if it makes me money.

Too right I'd retire.. Although I'd probably volunteer and do something more worthwhile of my time instead, just to keep a bit of normality with life more than anything. All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy, but all play and no work makes Jack a drunkard.. ?
Yeh get involved with NPOs and probably have a small side business to keep the money floating instead of drying out.
Yes, I have more than enough games and anime to keep me busy daily. Then I would go spend more time with people I know.
No absolutely not. I really rather enjoy my job. That is why I picked it, that is why I stay. If I hated or even consistently disliked it I would’ve left long ago for something else. We spend much more of our life working (if holding a full time job) then we do anything else. I would never tolerate something I disliked taking up the majority of my life.
If I won the lottery what I would do with it would depend on the amount. Is it changing as in $3–10 million? Or functionally unlimited like $10m +? If it was a life changing amount that would at least triple my net worth, I would quietly invest it and change essentially nothing about my life. I’m happy now, no need to kick over the table if I’m already winning. I might just buy a few fancier or newer versions of the things I have now, all from newly generated passive income after the first year.
But quit my job? No, that I enjoy and would keep.

I would retire. Absolutely!
Who wouldn't want to go out and do whatever they wanted instead of slaving away at a job? Especially if you don't like that job in the first place?

I would, of course, who wouldn't if they won the lottery? I'd jet off somewhere nice.
Even if I win or not, I do not want to retire from work. It would be a job to work for my own company.
I gave up my 9 to 5 job and did some business designing and executing landscaped gardens. These days I do not work but busy on forums.
