It seems most will never be happy.

You assume people tie happiness to income Our household income is about 1.2M but honestly $ stopped being a contributing factor to happiness /unhappiness at ~400K

300k passive

300k passive is my target too. Figure I need 1M+ for a few years to get there

300 passive is 180 after taxes in CA. For that you need a NW of 2.2M post taxes. You can get there in 10 years with 300k salary easily.

I don’t think I will be happy with even 10m because I have forgotten how to be happy.

But with 1m+ I can down my Prozac with reserve Hennessy every night

It's not the income, it's the net worth.

right answer is: 50% more than everyone I know personally

As much as possible

Not a clear poll because it doesn't include anything about job security. My TC threshold is much lower if I can guarantee it for the rest of my career. But in this age of layoffs, I need to double or triple that to compensate for lack of job security.

No you don’t. What’s your fire number?
