I work in finance and know a bunch of people who made more than 10 million a year for a while, and they all tell you exactly that: very quickly, you have way more than what you'll ever need, and having more money has zero impact on your personnal lifestyle.

They already have the house(s) they wanted, the cars they dreamt of, and the kids in the expensive schools. Plus being in finance, these people make more money with the money they already have.

Of course, there's always the dumbass who just bought his 20th ferrari, but that's just something else entirely.
