I think you have been in Kansas too long.

100K a year minus taxes is a take home of about $68000
that's 5666 per month. Now, living in san francisco rent for a 2 bedroom is anywhere from 1700 to 3000 per month. Car, insurance, parking food .. how much can you put away and invest?
Let's say a $800 a month in an investment portfolio.. I am not going to pull out the investment calculator, but I will tell you that in 40 years you would be lucky to have a million dollars and not even factoring inflation over 40 years.
I completely disagree with your $50 million dollar theory. If you can prove me worng then I have a job for you as a CFP.
