A good question ...How much do you need?
But a better one might be ... How do I get to keep, in today’s dollars, what I’ve earned ?
“A good question ...How much do you need?”
My question: how much is enough?
How do I get to keep, in todays dollars, what Ive earned ?
You don't, you convert it into hard value assets that always rise in the aggregate in dollar value. Paper is crap, and just a promise. Turn as much of it as you can into gold, silver, copper, guns, long life durable goods, airable land, ammo, etc...
