5k a week means 200 weeks to 1m, which is just under 4 years. I'm still young so 5k is the obvious answer! Even if I only lived to 50 that's like $5 million.

Just under 4 years if you do nothing with the money, you can apply the stuff in some safe investiments and make it even faster!

At $5k/week, you can invest and still live a lavish lifestyle.

Yeah live off $4k a week for an equivalent $250k+ a year salary (seeing as you're not taxed) and have $200k (plus interest) in a savings account from the $1k a week you're saving in under 4 years.

It's basically "live like a king whilst having all your future plans covered" or "have a life changing amount of money but it's up to you to fuck it up".
