The point is not to chill and just burn through the savings and not work. How would having that much money saved, change the way you look for jobs?

    That would last you two years of not working??? That wouldn’t last me a year of rent (maybe 6 months or less), never mind other expenses like food. I don’t even live in an overly expensive place like California or NY. I also don’t have any extravagant expenses. What in the world place do you live in with rent that cheap?

    The insane levels of post-COVID inflation has been a real bitch, though. Prior to COVID, that would have been around a year’s worth of rent (but still not enough for other things like rent and utilities). But everything has skyrocketed since. But even pre-COVID, I can’t imagine $10k being two years of total living expenses.
