I don't know what the tax rate would be given I'm using hypothetical investment vehicles...but even at 40%... you're still looking at 90K a year.

add that to my current salary..and I'm sitting pretty



Best answer so far, this is how I view it too.

Exactly What I would do..

Just pick up a nice car, and see if I can move to a better house. No need to be flashy.

For example say you work at a full time job from 25-65.. $3,000,000 is equivalent to $75K a year...

^ This. I could probably live on $25 million with a normal lifestyle. I'm talking, simple lifestyle of house, car, insurance coverage, family needs, education and etc.
Nothing too fancy, maybe a vacation once every 5-10 years. But even then I would still probably work just to be active and start more charities and small businesses to keep the revenue flowing.
