Right now? Probably 500k. Mill would be nice. Still somewhat young and I have a lot of hobbies and skills I’d like to continue developing. 500k would give me enough breathing room to be off work until self employment is figured out. Just fucking tired of corp and burnt out right now beyond belief

3 mil. Even a safe 5% gives you $90k after reinvesting 2% for inflation. $90k ain’t rich, but you can be comfy and not have to work.

3 million for a middle class life.

500k-1m in a house
2.5M-2M in passive income (~100k-80k/year)

9M to 12M would be fairly luxurious and great though. With that amount you could afford luxuries like private school for the kids, a part time maid and still have alot left over to invest in stocks/real estate. That'd be a upper middle class life.

Yea I’d say now post covid pump, a lot more people in the markets got wealthier. Markets at all time highs. So middle class now 3-5 million net worth. upper middle class is now 6-12 million net worth. Wealthy is 15 million- 30 million. Rich is 30 million +

10 Million would be a good number, but to obtain that, you would need 15 million because you would get raped by taxes. I just want 5 million after taxes (basically like making 10 million pre tax). People forget that you have to make millions more than what your target amount is because you get fucked up the ass by the government on your gains. But hey, at least your tax dollars are going to supporting a war in ukraine/ middle east and flooding your countries with third world migrants. kek

I could change my life with probably 100k. With one million I would be firmly established, and with two I could be luxuriously established. In the modern day, 30M+ is rich, however. My goals are beyond even that, but even 50k would make a big change in my life right now.

This is like the chubby thots on those videos saying "my man needs to make at least $100k"

No, this is the END goal
What OP was asking was how much money do you need to be personally happy

I can speak with experience, though it depends on age
If you're in your 20s you need about $150k networth to be satisfied on the money front, because you will have enough for retirement and won't have to worry about that
Asking for or expecting any more than that is getting greedy (though it's obviously good to have more money if you already have it)
Getting greedy is when you put overmuch emphasis on and reliance upon money to supply you feelings of happiness, status, security and optimism
You can have all those things already, the money is simply a practical tool to fix and secure a material basis of living, and you don't need 15 hammers

As long as you have a normal income you'll be alright

By the time you're in your 30s that number should be up to at least $300k nw, and 40s $750k with a house separate from that to be paid off by the time you're 50
