> 500k still seems low but might do it if you don't have rent to pay.

As I answered in the sibling thread, it very much depends on where you live; $500k is, as a back-of-the-envelope calculation, about a total amount of money an average denizen of my country will earn during lifetime, so it definitely is more than enough to live there.

I guess that assumes your country doesn't develop rapidly and experience the accompanying inflation of the cost of living.
