    It’s meh, but put it in saving account with 3%p.a. mean you’re getting 2.5k per month from doing nothing. It’s meh money as well, i know, but you won’t goes hungry in a stable economy at least.

        and need to go back to work

        Well, that’s the issue. The dividend of 2.5k from investment obviously won’t allow a comfortable living and should be treated as something extra. It’s pretty ridiculous to live in a big city with rent higher than the dividend and without job lol.

    It’s wild when you watch a show like ‘The Rockford Files’ because Jim et al were always using specific sums when they talked. Someone boasting about owning a $1 million house in Beverly Hills or spilling their guts for $20 is pretty mindboggling.

    “I feel like a million bucks” = “I’m OK” “I feel like a thousand bucks” = “I’m one misfortune away from total collapse”
