I don't know if a couple million is "fuck you" money in 2023 (enough to never work again and eventually retire while living a fairly luxurious lifestyle?), but point taken.
I can say "fuck you" with no money at all, since I can still talk for free!
How much do you need to take a, say, $130K income for the rest of your life? (Which is still not really enough to live at a wealthy luxury standard). Depends on how old you are and how long you'll live, as well as anticipated rates of investment return. But it's almost definitely more than 2 million.
FU money has nothing to do with living a wealthy lifestyle. It's having all your basic needs taken care of so you don't have to do things you don't want to do to earn money.
