    3 Million, 10 thousand dollars + whatever amount in taxes that would be required to keep 3 million, 10 thousand for myself. My wife and I could retire (live off of the interest) and then just spend a year enjoying our time off before hitting the trail--maybe even have time to really get in shape before hitting the trail. The 10 grand is so that we don't have to save any of the 3 mil for hiking expenses (I would want to have a REALLY cozy hike if I were worth a few million...).

    NO WAY! NO! NO AMOUNT! I am going in March. Anything could happen in between now and next year to prevent you from hiking. NOW is the time 2006's!
