Of course I'd stop work, work is a way of getting money to live life, and while I quite enjoy the job I have, it's not something I'd choose to do if I didn't need to be paid. (If any job was that awesome then people wouldn't need to be paid to do it, after all.)

I'd probably set up a game development studio for the business side of life. I've always wanted to get into that but it's prohibitively expensive and difficult as a part time project. I'd buy a nice yacht and cruise around the world visiting places I've wanted to see for a while, as well. And some nice houses in pretty places. I'd probably still do a bit of coding on the side though.

I don't really think I'd know how to spend more than about £50m, and that's including really going over the top on the yacht.

Straw Poll

Were you affected by the geomagnetic storms this past weekend?
Communication disruptions, electrified pipes, random unexplained blue-screens in Windows - the list of effects is terrifying.
