Many lottery winners ‘stay in work because they enjoy it’ – October 12th 2011

  by: admin - Category:

To some lotto fans, the idea of carrying on with the nine-to-five slog every day when there’s a pile of cash in their bank account seems insane – but studies have found many lottery jackpot winners carry on working because they love what they do.

According to the Guardian, a study by Scott Highhouse, psychology professor at Bowling Green State University in Ohio, reported that two-thirds of Americans would not retire, while a similar ICM survey revealed the “vast majority” of Britons would maintain their routine even in the event of a massive windfall.

US journalist Jacki Cisneros, a New Zealand trucker and two shop workers from the UK all won big on the lottery recently, with every one of them carrying on working, despite their respective $266 million, NZD 5.4 million and £750,000 lotto payouts.

Last week, Hollywood superstar Hugh Jackman told the Daily Telegraph that having a job is good for people and that those who win the lottery and hand in their notice will not necessarily be happy in the long-run.
