(Mine’s in US dollars and I assume this is after taxes, etc.)
Don’t get me wrong, I would be happy to win any amount of free money even a few dollars is a few dollars more than I have now. A couple thousand dollars would be amazing, but I think it would take about $30,000 (pay off car loan) to actually make a difference in my day-to-day life. And I’d say at least $200,000 (pay off a larger loan) to make a big difference. Probably about $1,000,000 to pay off all my loans and make an actual change to how I live my life.
