Would You Take $20 Million?

It has been reported this week that the Green Bay Packers, fearing a PR disaster, have offered future hall-of-fame quarterback Bret Farve $20 million dollars to stay retired. While I am all for a free market, there is something wrong in our society when doing nothing is rewarded with that sum of cash. That got me to thinking...how many people would be willing to quit or stay away from what they do in exchange for $20 million? I know if I had to choose, I'd turn down the money easily. I couldn't stop pastoring/preaching for all the money in the world.
