Deal. I pay myself 25,000 a year and live like a bum doing nothing.

I become a twitch streamer and I only stream chess.

How similar is similar? I work FOH in the restaurant industry.

In this case I could go to college full time though without working and still have several hundred thousand left at the end so probably worth regardless.

Assuming you're 30 now and live to be 80, that's only $20,000 to live on per year. Hardly "never work again" money.

I'm not gonna live to be anywhere close to 80. I could easily spend the rest of my days living the same lifestyle that I do now with $1,000,000

You invest the million and live off the interest. Usually the guidance is you can spend 4% of what you have saved, so in this case $40,000 indefinitely.

It means you cannot work the same type of job with another employer.

Example: You are currently a waiter. You cannot be a waiter for anybody else.

Not true. Ive done the math for my base salary and I will have earned about a million dollars when I retire. I will retire at 61 years old.

I mean unless you are already close to being 60

Its better to have the money up front so you can invest and put your money to work. If you invest it all in index funds, you could live off of a 4% withdrawal rate. Id personally need more than $40k/year though.

45k is what I made last year. That's overtime pay though. My life is comfortable. And though its rent I live in a house not an apartment.

So if you go with the invest money route moving somewhere cheaper could be a solid plan

No way.

I've been through loads of different kinds of jobs to find something that I actually like. To give it up I'd need enough money to not need to work ever again and that's nowhere near enough.

Probably. I think.

The money would let me pay off the mortgage and go back to school
Right now i make decent money in tech and it would probably be tough to get back to where i am in a lot of fields

But idk, no mortgage and some decent savings... maybe i start teaching so i can have summers off. Would cover property taxes and expenses well enough, can just let the money grow for a early retirement

Oooh or i always wanted to get into robotics
Id go to robot school i think

My current job field is relatively easy and at the upper end of the pay range I could make over 1 million within 10 years so in the long run I don't think the 1 million is worth it but short term it obviously is.
