$1,000,000 / $150 = 6,666 days
6,666 days / 365 days = 18 years
I wouldn't start making more than $1,000,000 until 18 years have passed. By that point, I'll be 55. ;_;

and $1 000 000 compounded annually at 8% for 18 years is like $4 000 000

why are people voting for the $150

1 million. Only need to be making like a 6% return each year investing to outpace the $150/day and with inflation the way its going that isnt a lot to ask.

You'll be lucky to make 8% a year a couple times, it's definitely not something that's happening consistently.

These polls show who needs lessons on money management and math.

its like people saying theyd take payouts instead of a lump sum when it comes to lottery.

you always take the lump sum. Because inflation will always beat out the pay out value over time.

It would take over 18 years to make a million at $150 a day.

I could very conservatively turn a million into 4 or 5 times that in that amount of time.

Think you need to redo your math. That's about a 8-9% annual return

Maybe very conservative is strong phrasing, but those are very realistic numbers.

I'd take half the million, dump it into Chainlink, pay myself $75K and give the rest to my pops to shut up my mum about money. I'd at the minimum 10x the 500K within 2022.

There's no reason to go for chump change when there's a ton of information out there to grow or solidify your wealth and start preparing a retirement fund now.

Bad math and/or bad money management (i.e. you'll always have another $150 tomorrow but if you spend the $1 mil that's it).

150 a day is 54,600 a year. More than enough to live off without having to work either - plus it's for life, so I'll still be picking this up if I live into my 80s.

I never have any luck with investments so the mil upfront wouldn't suit me.

I went for 150 a day because it is a safer move. Invest incorrectly or mess up with that million, you are done. At least with the daily $150 you have more opportunities if something goes wrong initially.
