    I think $100 million.

    You need a million to live off of the interest without touching the principle, and not everyone who’s retiring is out of touch with reality.

    Family farming companies are often worth more than $10 million, and most people setting up preg-checking are still able to interact with society.

    A hundred million though? The people I’ve met at $50 million are already pretty out of touch, but they might still be able to recover if they socialized with normal humans a couple more times a week.

      $50 million is probably a common breaking point. That’s probably where you can afford to surround yourself with paid lackeys and yes men so you’re in a permanent bubble.

        Interest alone at 50 mil would be roughly 200k/month at 4%.

        It would get really easy to disconnect from the actual earth at that spending rate.
