Mindset

Those who are living paycheck to paycheck (although they make 300-500k+ a year) think in terms of monthly/quarterly income. They fixate on what the dividend/yield/distribution is every month or quarter. Higher net worth or experienced investors who have seen their deals go full cycle know that 2-5% of cashflow on their deals is small potatoes and does not change their life one bit. These investors tend to view investments on a longer time horizon in terms of 2-5 year increments or longer as opposed to monthly/quarterly/annually. They also tend to invest in higher equity growth investments where they optimize for velocity of money as equity growth (ie developments with no cashflow).

Morbid ideals

The older you get the less unknowns you have for needs of money. For example you don’t have kids and potentially your kids are financially independent. Plus from a life expectancy standpoint the years remaining that you need to spread your net worth out is less and less but also less uncertainty. As a result, “endgame” for someone in their 40’s might be 5-6M net worth whereas someone in their 60’s might be a mere 2-3M independent of lifestyle needs.
