Gee, spot the billionaire 🙄 /s
Shit a million bucks will at least buy you a house and then some
In my area you could buy three!
I feel like three houses!
In my area it will buy you a family home, but not a particularly special one.
But with a million bucks you wouldn’t really be bound by location anymore. You could just retire somwhere that is cheaper and without the need to work most of your waking time you aren’t even really limited by language as you have plenty of time to learn a new language.
In my area the first 500k would buy you at least 150 acres, the 100k would buy a tractor to clear out enough woods for a house, put in a well, run power lines and septic. 200k would buy you the materials for any house you could imagine. 8 bedrooms 8 baths? Sure. A duplex with a workshop? Hell yeah. One ground floor and 3 sub-basement levels? Now we’re talking.
The last 300k would buy you a business in the local town for some income.
Depending on where you live. I moved away from the Bay Area because $1M wouldn’t get you a starter home an hour drive away from the city.
A million bucks isn’t what it used to be, but it would still solve basically all of my problems and that would make me feel pretty great
Still sounds catchier than, “I feel like a month’s rent”.
I feel like a starter home in a high cost of living area.
I mean, it’s not as great as it used to be, but if you have any extra million bucks, feel free to give them to me if you feel like it’s meh.
Maybe to you Captain Richiepants
I feel like I could almost buy a detached house in a major metropolitan area!
It’s meh, but put it in saving account with 3%p.a. mean you’re getting 2.5k per month from doing nothing. It’s meh money as well, i know, but you won’t goes hungry in a stable economy at least.
“I feel like a million bucks” = “I’m OK” “I feel like a thousand bucks” = “I’m one misfortune away from total collapse”
It’s wild when you watch a show like ‘The Rockford Files’ because Jim et al were always using specific sums when they talked. Someone boasting about owning a $1 million house in Beverly Hills or spilling their guts for $20 is pretty mindboggling.
I feel like a hundred bucks!
I feel like a million-gazillion-bajillion bucks today.
A million Zimbabwe bucks from 2009?
