You are way overshooting. Of course you can comfortably retire with less than $10M under 40!

The money is still working for you, presumably, through dividends on investments, etc.

He should read up on the FIRE movement and 4% rule. If you can live off 4% of your invested net worth, you're probably good. It all depends on your expenses.

Yeah unless you are an extreme outlier and have expensive tastes you should be able to live off that very easily.

I still have passive income, although more unpredictable then dividends. So very hard to translate that into a 4% rule.

Oh, sorry I misread. I thought you had an exit with a lump sum or something.
