Of course totally depends on location and lifestyle, but I guess that someone who is quitting a 1M/y is not really optimizing for a expensive lifestyle. In any case, there are a lot of places in EU and USA where you can have high quality of life with a warchest of 2M cash.
And yeah lets clarify that I don't mean retiring when I said you can do what you want, and I was not thinking that you may not have any other income for the remainder of your life. For me is having the freedom to work on what interest you, with people that is interesting and not having to suffer any fools never again in order to make ends meet. We all trade time for money, I would just preffer the condensed version and be done with it.
