I don't think you could just kick your feet up and 100% retire with that much in the US. You'd likely have to get a job. But, with a bit of passive income from investments, it doesn't have to be a particularly high-paying j

Whenever the Kinesis Advantage 360 starts shipping, that might be a good option for trying out a split keyboard. They have 60 day returns and don't fight you on RMA at all: https://kinesis-ergo.com/support/returns&
