If I won the lottery
I used to joke that if I'd won the lottery while I was working at my old job, I would:
- Continue working thereFund a $100 million retirement planSend my plan out for RFP each year around the same time as my review.
- If I didn't get a good review, I would threaten my sales person that I would take my business elsewhere.
- So, my salary would have been paid out of the client retention budget, and I would demand a huge pay increase each year.
