No clarifying questions allowed. Nothing like “did it fall out of my pocket?” or “is the amount I won through the lottery?”

I’ll go first.
$10k

It's context-dependent.

How much is “a lot of money”

My first thought is an amount of money to spend, so I'm going to say $1,000. To me, less than $100 is not a big purchase. $100 to $1,000 is a big purchase, but not an amount of money that really requires planning or advance savings. More than $1,000 is something I have to specifically account for, such as timing the purchase around other purchases (assuming it's not an emergency expense).

Another alternate definition would be "Slightly more than the last gun I bought." A lot of gun guys have that definition. ;)

Leaving my pocket, too much.

Entering my pocket, not enough.

7.5 mill feels oddly specific

i feel like if you have $7.5 in liquid assets, you've already made enough $$$ to accumulate all the toys needed to be a rich guy.
