Is It Possible to Earn 1 Million Dollars a year and still be there for your family?

Ranked #23,508 overall

HERE'S WHAT I THINK

Is it Possible to Earn 1 Million Dollars a year and still be there for your family?

we all would like to rich. if you are like me, you would not want to sacrifice your family time to earn more wealth (this is not taking into consideration the dire circumstances that requires the breadwinner to bring home the dough in crunch times). most of us would like to be financially free to do all that we set our hearts to, without every worrying about the next paycheck. but herein lies the problem.

we want the money to 'roll' in freely without our effort. but this is rarely the case (unless you are the offspring of a rich tycoon). most of the time individuals needs to put in the time, sweat, tears, hardwork, sacrifices, more time, and more sweat, just to make this happen. so, for a moment, if we consider this to be a possibility, that the input (the effort) does generate a significant output (the paycheck), is it possible to earn ONE MILLION dollars per year?

THE QUESTION of the PAYCHECK

Is It Possible to Earn ONE MILLION dollars per year?

Fetching blurbs now... please stand by

Yes i think it's possible!

TransplantedSoul says:

Yes - possible to do, but so many of those that do, probably don't deserve it from a societal perspective. I'm sorry, but Fity-cent "earning" millions from Coca Cola for endorsing a brand of water and then selling later for ~$50M is just stupid. It's you and me the consumer who end up paying for this nonsense.

Absolutely - but it does take time and effort to get things rolling... I think once you reach that plateau it will get easier to maintain the momentum of cash flow.

Absolutly, you just need to be focus in your goal, delegating, and creating effective systems that allow you pass quality time with your family.

AndyPo says:

Yes. The "credit crisis" has made most of the population poorer, but many of the people who either caused the problem or should have been able to reduce it's effect have made huge amounts of money at the expense of almost everyone else in the world. It is possible to make a million a year and do good at the same time, but at the moment most people making that much are parasites taking everything they can get while the party continues.

So You Want to Get Rich?

So Lets Consider..

for the sake of the debate, lets just assume for one moment that it is indeed possible to earn one million dollars per annum. this equates to roughly $83,333 per month, or $6,944 per day. lets consider the effort, time, energy, and sacrifice required to have a return of $6944 per day. what comes to your mind?

i think the common picture of an individual with such a income lives and breathes the job, spends about 27 hours per day working, and has little or no time to spend with family and loved ones. this individual has much to accomplish every day, and going without sleep is a common phenomenon. perhaps sleep is no longer a word in such a person's dictionary.

herein lies the next question...

In Your Opinion,

In most cases - yes - but it depends on how much comes from multipliers of marketing and how much it exploits others. For example, Briney Spears does not add millions of value to society, nor does Judge Judy, but they are (or were) both in the top 10 female earners. A lot of nonsense.

it all depends how u earn it. you could be very busy or you could lay on a beach or do a lot of charity work. it gives you options.

I guess there is a lot of variation there.

I'm sure someone has to work hard to make that much. I try but don't get paid NEARLY that much!

This is where wisdom comes in. I believe it is possible and still have time for family and other things that are important to you.

Some are, but not all of them. I don't think it's necessarily true that to be a mlllionaire you have to sacrifice family or personal time. But I'm not in that income bracket myself so can't say by personal experience.
