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?

    Cost of living isn’t the same everywhere and perspective is relative.

    Rent in my area averages around 3k USD/mo for fairly plain arrangements. Between that and “unavoidable” costs like utilities, you’d get 3-4 months max on that amount, even living frugally. It really isn’t that much for a lot of people, even if that amount might be to you.

      Thanks for pointing out the cost of living being different depending on area. That’s really important
