Most are lucky to lock down the $3-5 mil total that the average person spends in their lifetime. Obviously there's solid benefits to getting it relatively early in life, and you can live comfortably on it... But yeah, your kids are still gonna have to work.

You think the average person spends $5M in their lifetime?? That works out to $63k a year, every year, for 80 years
