> $120 Mil is about half after taxes. Or nothing, depending on the crowd Levandowski hang out with or wanted to join.

Taxes don’t increase or decrease based on the “crowd you want to join”.

Sure. But that’s an absurd response to the assertion that it’s “enough for any reasonable person for several lifetimes”. Sure, you could potentially burn $60 million on private jet service and an army of personal waitstaff. For that matter you could also literally burn $60 million cash in a fire. But most probably wouldn’t consider these “reasonable” behaviors.
