nothing really changes when you earn your first $3M. it's all basically the same shitty quality of life. the second $3M is where life starts to actually get easier and better to live.

Really? I’m somewhere around 2.5 right now and don’t feel well off in a HCOL. I’m not sure if 6 would alleviate those concerns unless I also had a paid off house.

if you have $6m and just invest in average retirement investments (not talking about FIRE/dividend living) your savings will grow like $400-600k a year on average (long term) and so your tiny pink 401k match starts to matter less and less.

so why wouldn't you take a $50k paycut or whatever to claw back some free time? (ok fine in theory and doesn't work like that but at least you can start looking for less careerist jobs)

At $6m you can stop working altogether and live on dividends without touching the balance.

A 6% yearly return would put you at $360k per year.

“News at 10”

if you’re life was devoid of meaning pre 3M, it won’t have anymore meaning at 6M.

Seems right to me. Until you have enough money to never work again, life is pretty much a grind until then.

plus with $6m this day comes at age 60 with no risk and age 50 is fine if your house is paid off and no college expenses.

with $3m you may end up working to 65 years to be safe.

Yeah, but sounds like you don’t know “what’s next”.

Let me tell you. It’s not overrated but you are now facing a deeper, harder to diagnose problem. It’s one of meaning and it doesn’t have a set number like “6M” to get solved. In fact it has no numerical solution. Can you handle that?

You better, or you will quickly devolve. At least with concrete money goals you have some structure. But not in this case when you have “made it.”

Maybe -- but not really. This is the type of platitude a financial advisor who makes $85k provides. I think the number starts ~ $4 million.

You don't have enough money to quit work, unless perhaps you remain single forever or you move to a developing country.

Presumably you've built up a modest career, which is another trap. You can't take a 5 year vacation in Thailand then pick up where you left off.

So you need more money. A little more. More Adderall. More long weekends. More wage slavery. More smiling on company videoconferences. And bigger gambles on shitcoins.
