$100? $1000? $10000? $100000?
Unfortunately these dollar amounts are small amounts. One hundred dollars is pocket change to most Americans. A thousand dollars would buy an older "junker" work car that probably needs a new set of tires.
Ten thousand dollars might start a small at home or street business if someone were to be frugal with the money.
The largest amount indicated one hundred thousand dollars would only make a good down payment on the average American home.
A lot of money to me is 50-100 billion dollars. That is billions with a "B".
The amount it would take to exceed any one of the richest people in the world net worth. But not enough to exceed all of the richest peoples net worth put together.
Peace!

That is relative. I think $10 million is a lot of money, but I know baseball players who would laugh if someone offered them that kind of chump change.
Of course I have heard that GE workers went on strike a few years ago after being asked to pay a few dollars per month for previously free health insurance. To them, a hundred dollars for a year's worth of health care was a lot of money.

I personally know quite a few millionaires, so it's not such a big deal anymore. I think a lot of money would be over 10 million dollars, and probably much more than that.

Depends on whom you are talking to.... For me a lot of money would be enough to pay my bills, get what I want and still have money left over and still have insurance, my 401k saving account, checking acct a nice home and a great car with excellent insurance on me and all of the above. That I cannot put a number on.

It depends on how much money you have to blow. A lot of money to Bill Gates is not the same as a lot of money to me.
I don't like spending more than $20 unless it is a planned purchase.

A recent magazine article said to be rich you must make $1,000,000 a year. 10% of the US population makes over $100,000. A million isn't a lot anymore.

It depends on who you ask. I think that you;re doing well once you start approaching a billion. At that point you're pretty much financially free.

Depending on a family budget.

None of the above. People with lots of money get greedier and greedier and can never get get enough.
