    Let's just say that you had more than enough money to survive for the rest of your life, and you do not need to work. Would you work just to have something to do or would you just relax for the rest of your life?

    Some people will relax, some will keep working. Like Dr. Jordan Peterson says, they are people who can quit working, their commitment is eternal, they are generally the one leading.

    So, to know what one will do if he/she gathers enough money, just know their personality, and you will have your answer.

    Generally, I believe I would never stop working no matter how much money I made. I fall deep into depression when I have little to nothing more to do, and that makes it imperative for me to continuously find purpose and work that helps me drive my life forward.

    What a dream come true! I would probably relax and travel with my family to enjoy the fact that I do not need to work for money.
    But after a while I know I would start looking for something to do and maybe start working on a new business venture.

    Life without work appears so boring because of the same activities throughout. It isn't easy to just sit and relax while many things can be done. Life without work appears enjoyable only when engaging activities are attached, where it is possible to have fun in diverse ways. I find resting difficult because of the picture of boredom that comes to my mind. Life can never be exciting with nothing to do.
