Right now 150K seems to be the single person income in the US where you can be comfortably middle class, make savings, and, overall have a life free of financial worry. Multiply that by an average lifespan of 80, gives us $12M as what a person would need in their lifetime to be happy and unburdened. More feels greedy, assuming once you get it, you intend not to work for an income for the rest of your life.

Oh shit... I didn't realize I was *that* poor!
Our dual-person household income isn't even that much... though we are in the midwest of the US.
