Except that in this case it's no longer 'collect money, move on to the next one'. It's 'collect money, become dynastically-rich, retire in 3 quarters from now'. After that, who cares.


This seems like a distinction without a difference. In the context of CEOs sacrificing the greater good for their bonus, [basically] nobody has done that for a $250k bonus. We're often talking 8 figures, tens of millions of dollars.

Is this really a categorically different thing if we're talking about $85 million vs. $12 million?


I've met dozens of ~$20M net worth people, they are just normal folks - in rich countries thats not even upper class money, thats "a nice home but thats it" kind of cash. $100M+ is "i can retire at will", while $500M are like a different species, surrounded by yes-men and usually quite damaged mentally from all the ass-kissing. So yeah, i think there is a meaningful distinction.


Stop smoking the stash


Even if this absolute nonsense is accurate (it's not), you're agreeing with me. I said there's not a category difference between $12M and $85M in this context. And you're saying $100M is where it starts being different.

This is just nonsense, nice house in a rich country is $2-4M. $10M is enough to FatFIRE as a family.
