    $100 million invested into dividend stock would gross him $1-5 million per year. About 1/3 of that will be paid in taxes, depending on what kind of dividends those are.

    Me personally, I think I’d be happy with $10 million but I guess you get hungry when there’s a lot of food in front of you.

      Depends if you want rich people play money or just comfy people play money.

      Also if you want to say buy a beach front house in california or a nice mountain home in Colorado. That alone can run you a few millions dollars upfront not to mention a the on going costs.

      100m is honestly not a lot of money if you plan to not for for the next handful of decades and want to actually enjoy a rich life style.

      10 mill will put you in a nice middle class home and keep you living a middle class life style for the same length of time.

      Wealth to life style scales pretty well from 10 to 100 million dollars when your looking at a 35 year span.

        and want to actually enjoy a rich life style.

        I guess my imagination is not good enough but I cannot imagine what I’d need much more than 1M per year in passive income for. 100K every 5 years easily gets me the car I want, 2M up-front would probably be enough to get me the house I want. Perhaps another 2M for a second house in some warm climate. I could pay for all of that in 1-5 years of passive income if I had $10M in investments.

        I’ve been to Monaco. I’ve seen rich people. I didn’t see anything there I wanted.
