I thought money won was twice as sweet as money earned. Or am I thinking of sugar?

10 million dollars would be fantastic. You would never have to work again: even if you know nothing about investing and just put it all in the bank at 3% interest, you would get $25,000 per month without depleting the principal. Of course, you'll have to pay taxes on the interest and there's inflation as well, so let's say you only spend $10,000 per month. That's $10,000 per month, forever, every month, without having to work. That's pretty good! With the time freed up from not having to work, and the money, you could do a lot of fun and interesting things: travel, learn new skills, help the people you care about, do the things you always wanted to do but didn't have the time or money.

i know people that make more than that in a month. some of them still live in debt, and none of them are effortlessly rich. they all work hard for the money, and spend it hard.
