In the first season of Wall Street Warriors Timothy Sykes was having dinner with his buddies and they started talking about "fuck you money" - the amount of money you would need to not have a care in the world and just be able to say fuck you to everyone.
So what is your amount?
I'd say at least 10 million.

Honestly, "it's not about the money, it's about the game". The money's only a bonus to keep me motivated while playing.
When I win, I say fuck you and walk out.

Probably $40 million to $50 million, after tax. I wonder if some of the above posters have an appreciation for how much waking up every day and going to work sucks. It wouldn't take too much for me to throw in the towel and live a life of leisure.

@compbanker - very true that
@compbanker - very true that going to work every day is not ideal at this point, but once you have your first 50million or so (when you said you would retire), then there is no reason to really retire, because work stops sucking... you can join up with a few of your best friends and start your own shop. At that point you'll be respected in the game and know a lot of people and be able to raise yourself a phatty little mid-market fund of 400-800mm... Pay a few super-star senior associates / VPs to do 90% of the dirty work and just sit back and read memos written by your princeton/HBS educated 400k per years slaves... drink a few espressos, peruse the WSJ and get BJ's from your super hot assistant all fucking day... And of course you'll need to do a ton of first class travel, stay in executive suites at the ritz / four seasons and eat dinner out at elegant restaurants with plenty of $500 / bottle wine.... all on your unlimited expense account and for the good of the fund!!! hurray for capitalism and the value of experience... it makes getting old ALMOST not suck.
I agree that going to work sucks... but once you get to the boss level it stops sucking and starts being awesome... so I have a feeling I'm never going to retire. I'm going to get myself an office like the one Michael Douglass has in The Game and just fucking chill the fuck out and use my insane knowledge and skills to get rich as fuck.

This is one of the worst posts I've ever read on this site, and on so many levels, the desperation and toolishness, holy crap. Don't edit please I'm linking your post on my fb status as what an insufferable tool you are.
You're a douche bag...
You're a douche bag... without a sense of humor.
Also I would hope that you realize the inherent irony in calling someone a tool and saying that you're going to "link this to your FB profile" in the same line of speaking. You ought to post that shit on twitter as well, son.
I agree that I probably won't
