    The answers to your question will differ greatly based upon ones definition of "change", as much as ones need of the money.

    My answer would be somewhere north of 5 million.
    I don't think anything less changes the way I live my life

    <------- Simply refer to my avatar here for my answer.

    You see those multi-multi-millionaire celebrities like Nicholas Cage & Wesley Snipes who have gone completely bankrupt by doing and buying stupid sh!t?
    Yeah, that would be me..... I'm better off where I'm at now which is a good job, doing O.K., and building up a decent savings and 401k. Anything above that for my degenerate a$$ would just be trouble.

    One pro about growing up poor is that you know how to stretch a buck.

    Give me $10k and I can do wonders with it.
