Comment on Ask HN: FU Money: What is your number?

Comments

$300k. This would be the perfect amount for me to stop working for someone else, take good care of my family, and have a very large runway to try out some audacious ideas. Then after a few years if I wasn't liking the direction it was taking, I would be in no hard spot and would have done some incredible things, both professionally and with the fam. (To clarify, $300k is the "quit today" amount.)

I also think that with that amount of capital it would be more plausible to create a business that would then generate the much higher numbers others are suggesting here.
