According to Kevin O'Leary, the only number that actually buys you freedom is $5 million.
Specifically, $5 million in Treasury Bills (T-bills).
Here's his logic:
T-bills are the safest asset on earth. They yield somewhere between 4 and 5%. On $5 million, that's $200,000 to $250,000 a year in interest.
His rule: get there, put it in T-bills, roll them, and never touch the principal. Not for a business opportunity. Not for a real estate deal. Not for anything. It just sits.
"If the poopoo hits the fan, you're still good."
Because the real value of that account isn't the yield. It's what it does to your decision-making. When you know that pile exists and nothing can touch it, every deal you do from that point forward is made from a position of strength. You can walk away. You can wait. You can say no.
Most entrepreneurs blow past this number and immediately put it back to work. That's the mistake. The discipline is to stop, lock it away, and let the rest of your portfolio take the risk.
Gold is an alternative. But gold doesn't yield anything. T-bills pay you to be safe.

I can’t believe Canadians have put their trust in someone who doesn’t even trust the Country he represents to invest his money into.
Carney’s U.S. holdings: ~90–95% vs his
Canadian holdings at roughly 1–5%
This clip from 2022 highlights this. He invested in pipelines everywhere but Canada. We were the last place he wanted his money invested in. Now he’s all of sudden the guy is Canada strong? What a fraud.
