Also, my dad lost millions in the pursuit of creating over 10M... he had over 1.5M in an inheritance that he lost. He lost his retirement. He lost his house. If he had just kept the money in something as simple as a very conservative mutual fund, he could have earned no less than 4%. In 2M, that's 80k/ year. His house was paid for until he borrowed against it... instead, he died basically broke with a 100k life insurance policy. His choices left him broke most of the time. When he had money, he was always in the pursuit of more. My goal is to build residual income rather than an arbitrary amount. I learned from his mistakes...I think...
