Yes it would. The vast majority of people will not make anywhere close to $5M in their lifetime.

4% annual return is 200k a year. 4% is pretty conservative.

That is $220,000 a year in basic interest for the rest of your life. I could find ways to make a few dollars and have ins. not to have to deal with the corporate bs anymore.

I’m under 40 and plan to put 3 kids through private school and college (none even in kindergarten yet).

I’d never work again with $5M.

T-Bills are paying 5% right now, so that's $250K/year without touching the principal. If you can't live on $250K, you have a spending problem.
