Living well...???
The term of course is relative but to maintain my lifestyle I reckon it would take a net household income after tax of around US $300k pa. I live modestly within my means these days :) |

( Since I got i nto this business ( "96) the first year was the only year I grossed less than 1 million) ;-)) It was how much it costs you to live well. Once you have enough to live well , the rest is gravy. Additionally its not what you make , its what you keep thats important ( that has finally sunken into my head) :) In 2001 I spent nearly 200k maintaining the fleet of cars I had. Me , Ant and crew once bought USD500k of cars during an afternoon on "National Car Buying day" LOL ((( fucking CRAZY lifestyle we had then)) :) |

here is my favorite joke on the subject. The correspondent on Wall Street Journal is taking interview from the billionaire and he asked him: "Is that true that you don't know how to read and to write?" -yes, this si all true. "but how did you make all your money? - I was a very poor child, no parents, so I came to rabbi and asked him for money. Rabbi asked if I knew how to write, I said no, rabbi asked if I knew how to read, I said no, rabbi said, it's too bad, I need an assistant, if you knew how to read and write, I'd hire you. He tore the button from his coat, gave it to me and sent me to the market to sell it and buy food. I went to the market, I sold the button, I ran to the wholesaler and bought 6 buttons, I sold them at the market, ran to wholesaler and bought 60 buttons...in 5 years I've had 27 button factories all over the world AND IF I KNEW HOW TO READ AND TO WRITE I'D STILL BE RABBI'S ASSISTANT! :) |
