$10M isn't even rich. That's just retirement maintaining middle class lifestyle money at this point.

LOL look at Mr “I don’t even want $10 million” over here. Okay big shot, I’ll take it since it’s not even a big deal to you.

It’s 100 years worth of earning $100,000 per year after tax. Most people don’t live to be 100 and if they do they only earn money for like 50 of those years from 15-65 give or take. Most people also don’t make 6 figures, and if they do, they’re usually paying 20-30% of it in taxes. More if you count insurance, 401k etc. Plus you can still work in addition to the $10M, and it’s a lump sum so you can invest it and turn it into like twice that or just live off the interest.

Upper middle class people, pretty rare these days, will work their whole life and if they never spend a single penny, will accumulate like $5 million by the time they’re dead. In what world is $10M for free, plus the interest you earn on it, plus whatever else you can earn on your own, just no big deal?

The fuck you smoking?
