Dude cash out a good chunk at 1 mill at least. SE Asia is cheap as fuck, you can live there for 500$ a month comfortably, or 1000$ a month really comfortably(Including hotel cost). That means with 1 million dollar you can live for 1000$ a month in Thailand for example, fucking hookers, eating as much food as you can for 83 years before dying of old age.

My end goal is 1$ mil. long from it now. But I know I am gonna make at least 200k this year.
