no, but a million at a time just as a metric, i mean. it’s about 150k a year to live comfortably near a major us city, so each million gets you about six years before inflation, before supporting anyone else, and before the taxes people have to pay to gift you that money. and the more money it is, the more estate/endowment/trust/gift/etc. taxes there will be. unless it’s like hundreds of millions, i promise it’s not as much money as you probably feel like it is now.
so if you’re a college student, you’d probably spend 7.5M in the rest of your life if everything was paused right here in inflation, but it’s not. if inflation continued at the rate it’s been at since people who are now 60 were college aged, that’d be 25M, but it’s happening way faster.
