I’m an X er. I figure that for me to live a comfortable retirement I need the equilivant of $200,000 per year in income. Today, you need 4,000,000 in T-bills to pay for that risk free. By the time I retire I figure I’ll need at least 10,000,000, to have a decent retirement.

I agree with your financial estimates. Fortunately, it is not that daunting if you don't inflate your lifestyle and let your investments roll and compound. Also don't get divorced. A sage once said "if it floats, flies, or f***s, don't buy . . . rent!"
