$1 million dollars, without so much as putting it in a passbook

Where I come from you can't live comfortably on that. And if the
inflation rate is (say) five percent, then in twenty years that $50K
would buy what $19K buys now.



You can't live comfortably on $50K per year? Remember, you would be
incurring NONE of the expenses inherent with earning a living (I.E.:
Commuting, clothes, etc.)


Don't you drive 4 miles to work?


Jay's not talking about his situation NOW.
