Is it a million before tax or after?
The more we have the more we want. If you had a million dollar on your bank account you wouldn't want to spend only $1000 per month (hardly a sum that can sustain you in such a city as Moscow, for example).
There's also a rule - if you want to have much you must also spend much. And the more you want to save, the more you will lose. The money flow should be continuous and not some fixed sum. Besides - you don't want to have only one source of income. It's better to have $10 from 10 sources than $100 from one, because thus you insure the risks.

P.S. BlackMage - I can arrange two chicks for around $200 Maybe even for free. Interested?

P.P.S. Minimum monthly income for decent living should be around 100-120 thousand roubles (around $3.5-4 thousand) per month. For good living it should be around 250-300 thousand roubles ($5-7 thousands) per month. (And this is AFTER TAX, but then who pays taxes in Russia...)
Having this much you won't even be considered rich here in Moscow, just the upper middle class.
