The my space guy really shows this. Anyone with any sanity would stop around a 100 mil or so and just go enjoy their life. Heck a large amount would do so at 10 and for folks who could live frugally if they have lots of life left 1 mil would do.

What about a dead billionaire?

Always remember that a billionaire didn't become billionaire by chance: they got there by trampling over other people and lying on their tax return forms. Nobody with a sense of decency becomes obsenely rich because decent people don't do these things.
