What do you do?
Well, since $1.5 million in $1 bills would weigh more than one and a half tons I’d probably scream.

Pass.

$1.5 million doesn’t go as far as it used to.

Scruffy likes his job.

With the stipulation that you have to quit your job, and are not able to work in the same field again, forever. What do you do?




Take the money.

Legally change my name.

Keep working and making bank.

I would take the deal, but I would need clarification.

I work in healthcare technology, do you classify that as technology or as healthcare? I would go back to school for an MBA/MHA and could easily transition to healthcare operations with my background, if you consider my current field technology.

If you consider my field healthcare, I could find a job as a business analyst in another field after a bit of education, too.

Is this the thread where the same people in financial threads claim that 1 million isn't much money these days take the money and run?

Sell my house, retire and move out west. Of course I’m 58, making that decision much easier.
