'I wrote ‘won Lottery/retirement?’ and they were like ‘you can’t put this down’ — I think they thought I was putting a joke reason'

‘I wrote ‘won Lottery/retirement?’ and they were like ‘you can’t put this down’ — I think they thought I was putting a joke reason.’ That’s 24-year-old Dean Weymes, in an interview, explaining how he quit his Amazon AMZN, +0.93% job the day after he found out he won 10,000 pounds a month for the next 30 years in the U.K. lottery.

“My break is 15 minutes, but I think I did a break abuse, I think by about 10 minutes,” Weymes told the Daily Mail. “I went back in, sat on my computer for five minutes, and said ‘I’m sick’ and went home.” He came back to work the next day, but only to explain why he was leaving.Congratulations to Dean, what would you do if you won?
