“...a few million doesn’t go as far as it used to...”

That happens to be true. Being a millionaire has long been perceived as being THE threshold for the truly rich. A million dollars is still a lot of $$, but now its barely enough to retire on. In CA, NY, & NJ, many homes that aren’t incredibly upscale cost over $1M. With many people making over $100K now, getting to be a millionaire isn’t as tough as it used to be. It may sound bizarre, but thanks to inflation, its true.

If this guy wants to keep on working, more power to him. Bill Gates kept on working hard well after he became a billionaire.
