A new survey says that that 20% of people currently in relationships would consider leaving their partner for a lottery win. The state where folks are most likely to leave after a lottery win is Kentucky, where one in eight people said they’d take any jackpot at all to walk out the door. That’s followed by Florida, where 42% of people said they’d leave their partner for less than $10 million. Wisconsin had the most faithful folks, with 79% saying no jackpot would make them leave their partner.
