You're asking the wrong questions buddy. You should ask everyone, "How much money do you need by retirement?"

By that time the threshhold will have gone up.  For many the 7.3 million is more than enough.

What if one doesn't want to feel like one?  I just want to feel normal.

True to some extent because many of us don't have as much as we like.  For some it is game.

We are in the beginning stages of a huge global inflation due to speculators being unchecked.  Inflation will increase and make speculators rich and all they do is trade stock and they don't even do anything positive for the society besides trading a piece of paper back and forth.  That's why Buffet said a system is broken when it allows someone like me to make billions in a lifetime that can last too many lifetimes.

1 million is not enough.  You need at least 3-5 millions to retire.  I kid you not.  3-5million because you need to adjust for inflation.  The inflation is gonna be sick.  As easy comparison is looking at 1980 vs Present.

Yeah, but also who's to say everyone can't be financially independent and financially free?? That's why there are only 1% of the rich population where as there is 85% people who are poor on government assistance and the 14% of upper middle class. However, also note that the upper middle class is poor as well just a different kind of poor.
