I do alright. I am a student, though.

6K is enough to get me out of debt as it stands.

several million would enable me to buy several properties which i would then either let out to others or live in depending on where they were. my dream is to buy huge rundown factories in both London and New York and convert them into space for struggling artists with bar, club and other cool shit attached. really i'd just like to travel around parts of the world whenever i chose.

One daydream I've had since I was 12 was buying the Blue Bell factory building in Tupelo and making the coolest loft apartment/personal amusement park ever. To this day I drive past it every few weeks and keep the dream alive.

I need approximately $70k to get out of debt (incl. student loans), I think. It might be $60k. I don't need anything after that because I've never had a huge problem figuring things out and being quite fine up until I suddenly had to pay for flipping school.

To be happy and secure and debt-free - maybe $350-400k? Just enough to buy a small older building in a medium-sized city and renovate it into a snazzy live/work space for myself, pay for four years of art school or college and have a little cushion in case anything went wrong.

I could spend and give away an inordinate amount of money if I hit the lotto.

I don't think it would matter how much money i had, i don't think I'd have it for very long.

per annum we've settled on around €40k PA each probably doing the job what with the no kids and the lack of student or any other debt

In London, idk, probably at least twice as much as i currently earn. I'd get by fine elsewhere on £30k - £35k.
