i have two levels: anything money, and nothing money.
$500k-$1m is my anything money. its enough money to allow me to do anything i want, but not enough for me to do nothing. i'd still have to work, but i could effectively make money by almost any means, i could do part-time work or take a really low-paying but fulfilling job and maintain my lifestyle.
$2m is my nothing number. enough money that i can do nothing and live off the sum. i could maintain my current lifestyle easily with $2m and never have to worry about it.
- wheels 17y agoYou obviously didn't have money invested this year. You would have seen your $2m become $1.5m. I had money in "stable" funds and it hurt.
- noodle 17y agoi did, actually, and i'm about +15% on the year so far. and about the same for the year before. i made some smart (read: lucky) decisions.
- baddox 17y agoSo what is between 1 and 2 million dollars?
- noodle 17y agothats also part of the anything money zone, but i was placing the threshold to hit anything money at the 500k-1m zone. after that, the next important threshold is in that 2m range.
