Let’s say you made $50k/year. It would take you 20,000 years to make a billion.
Let’s say you make $1m/year. It would take you 1,000 years to make a billion.
A billion is a dumb, immoral amount, and we have humans with hundreds of them, in theory. If you make a billion dollars, whatever earnings after should be taxed at 100%. It’s not “socialist” to make this claim. Rather, it’s inhuman to argue the opposite.

Id cap it at $10 million. I legitimately cant find a non-philanthropic use for $10 million. Some quick napkin math says i can spend about $1.7 million before running out of ideas to spend money on. Thats a 4b/2ba house, replacement car, backup car, house mods, gifts for family/friends, and a giant fuck you overkill server rack build for whatever tech projects i want. Put the rest in a garbage, basic ass savings fund and im already making more passively than i do manually now. I could blow $2k a day on literally anything and still make money.
