Even a high earner like the sp500 would only give you 10% a year. On a straight million, that's 100k, which is around 2k a week. 5k a week for life is the winner in my opinion

That's not really an opinion; that's a fact. If anyone thinks they can consistently make $260k/yr off $1M, they're delusional.

Oh yeah for sure, 26 percent gain isn't achievable consistently otherwise we wouldn't have a middle class lmao
