Does it get stuck in a digital account? depends on the will. Bill Gates is leaving 10 million (not billion) dollars to his kids each and the rest of it goes to the Gates Foundation for various charitable ends. He's been asked about it several times on Reddit AMAs and he says that leaving kids a huge fortune that he has doesn't really do them any favors. >Not leaving a huge fortune >10 million each Okay 10 million, with no safety nets from a still living daddy because that's literally all that's left, is really not a "set for life" thing unless they manage to get another source of income on their own. Many sports superstars exit their careers with more than 10 million and end up bankrupt. That's cause they're idiots. If you live a reasonable upper middle class life you can easily make ten million last. Also you can buy property and put the money to work for you in other ways. It's kinda absurd to say that's not set for life. Most working people will not even earn that in 40 years. --- "I got a rollatruc, look." <cite>CanuckCowboy posted [p:909967461] in Jeff Bezos...

Minute 10/04/18 8:23:54 PM #34:	I think if I had even $1,000,000 I could set myself up for life. Like... okay... if I had that much, I'd probably continue to work, but if the challenge was "you have $1,000,000 and you must never work another day in your life again" it wouldn't be that hard. Invest it all in some sorta index fund or etf or something, ~7% returns is $70,000. Invest, say, $30,000 a year to beat inflation and that leaves you with $40,000. Sure, that's not a lot for a sole income, but two things a) it's liveable. Like I said, if I had $1,000,000, I would continue to work for a long time before I retired. I probably would just have it reinvest in itself instead of taking any returns, rule of 72 states that within 20 years it will have quadrupled in value. b) it's completely independent of where you live and what lifestyle you maintain. Sure, you're not gonna live in a highrise in Manhattan, but you could live in fuckin rural Thailand and still be receiving payment. --- https://imgur.com/dITkcK9 <cite>Minute posted [p:909972803] in Jeff Bezos...
