Would you stop detecting if you won the lottery?

[Ammoman]

Every day I pass a billboard advertisement for the lottery. Today the jackpot is somewhere around 400 million dollars. Odds are around 303 million to one that a person will win.
Lets put this into perspective, the odds of hitting back to back hole in ones on a golf course are only 19 million to one. Pretty good odds compared to the lottery.

Anyhow, we can all dream and in my dreams I have won the lottery and have more money then I know what to do with. For me, it means I get any detector I want and I get to hire a full time staff that does nothing but secure permissions. For those pesky people that don't want to give up a permission? Lawyers will be brought in and strong arm tactics will be utilized within the legal limits of the law.

So, if you won the lottery, what would you do? Would you continue to detect and if so how would your winnings affect your detecting style? Or, would you give up detecting for a leisure life that involves other hobbies instead?

my brothers and sisters keep on getting high hopes to win the lottery someday, but they dont purchase tickets.

wanting to win, but never have the will to risk in buying the tickets.

....There's a Life Lesson, somewhere there...!

Well I know I would continue to detect, I am pretty happy with my gear so I don't think I would go on a buying spree, but I would hire me a staff to assist in research and secure permissions and then I would invite you all to come and join me!

Off I go to spend another two dollars to have a chance to win the loot. Then down to the beach for some real fun.

I would go full time metal detecting with plenty of overtime! Would have no problems working Saturday and Sunday too. Would work my way down the whole east coast and when I was done turn around and head the other way.

I double downed and bought two lotto tickets for to night! I am sure to win now

Nope, It would just allow me the time to actually go. Moved back south to be near family and the commute for work has me in the car for 650 miles a week and getting home after a 14 hour day with no time or energy. I could only imagine being able to go to acquaintances and let 'em buy the gear they wanted...
