Alice inherited a $7 million estate after the tragic loss of her parents in 2019, currently growing due to strong market performance. Despite having a well-paying job as a medical device saleswoman, Alice finds herself unfulfilled by the demands and stress it entails. Given her substantial capital gains—somewhere around $700,000 annually—she faces the dilemma of continuing to work purely out of necessity, or embracing the freedom her wealth brings. Her situation poses questions about the relationship between work, money, and personal fulfillment.
Alice's inheritance, valued between $7 million to $9 million, allows her to reconsider her job in sales, where her salary is negligible compared to her investments.
The dilemma arises when considering that her potential capital gains are far exceeding her income from her medical device sales job, presenting a unique opportunity for life reassessment.
With the market's significant growth, Alice's financial situation begs the question: should one continue working when the labor income is dwarfed by investment returns?
Alice's case illustrates a growing trend where individuals with substantial assets have the flexibility to pursue work solely for passion, rather than necessity.
