Yeah maybe in California where the Cost of Living is abnormally high compared to the rest of the US and the rest of western countries.
Speaking from Norway: I can agree that order-of-magnitude 10 million USD is earnable in a lifetime. A wage of 100 k USD / yr isn't absurdly high, and after 45 years that brings you to 4.5 million. So getting to like 10-30 million in a lifetime is still within what I would consider reasonably possible. At 100 mill. it's getting pretty absurd though.
