But if they paid you that much for your IP, would you still work for them?

Well, at least for the payout period, assuming it wasn't all given in a one time payment.
Otherwise, it of course depends on what they're doing. It might be really interesting work that you get the chance to work with a lot of other very brilliant people to build something amazing.
If that's not true, then no, I'd probably go and start just writing fun open-source stuff all the time.
