Enough for a house, a car, and some leftover to take care of my family. Everything after that I think is just greed. With those needs taken care of you have all the time in the world to work on another hit.
Except that you have to buy gas, pay property taxes, eat, drink and pay for entertainment. I get your point, for sure, but surely you want something in the bank to either help fund your next gig, or to buy yourself more time in case it takes a few more tries than 1?
Really? So if you were working on a successful startup, you would sell right when you reached the point that the net proceeds of a sale reached say, $1M?
