I actually went though everything I want in my 'awesome but not extravagant' life, and it came to a total of just slightly over $250k a year. (and that's with tax calculations included)

If you go through the calculations you often find the numbers not as high as you think.

Which at a 4% annual draw is a lump sum of $6,250,000 (after taxes), not taking into account inflation over the years.
