    I’d like 2 Million dollars. Thanx!

    January 24th, 2011

    Have you ever asked yourself how much money would make you happy and set you up for life? I have. And I’ve settled on 2M. Post tax, that is (so fine, call it 4M pre-tax).

    Here’s what I’m thinking:

    • With the first million we can pay off our house and I can also buy a home for my parents, and S’ parents. In reality, I wouldn’t really pay it off the bat. I’d set-up accounts to automatically pay every month, so that you could still get the tax break.
    • I’d take 1/4 of the remaining million and invest it for college education funds for the boys.
    • The other $750K I would invest for our own retirement.

    I would still work, but work for non-profits or charitable organizations, that can make a difference. Then I wouldn’t feel like I have to be earning a specific figure to take care of the house over heads & college tuition bit. I’d travel more. Visit family more often. Take the boys to South America, Asia, wherever and learn about history up-close.

    That’s not impossible to ask for, right?

    So… who wants to give me the money?
