Sorry to hear about your father. Inheritance is different than income though. It doesn't matter how much money you make in a given year...everyone, literally everyone, would be thrilled to boost their income by $333,333. If you inherit a one time lump sum of a million dollars then yes, I agree, it is not "a lot" of money to think you can just skate through the rest of your life without having to work or earn a supplemental income. You can put it into a high yield savings or annuities account and make $50-75k per year to pay your basic bills, but you're one emergency away from ending up in the breadline. But my point is that very very very few people will ever have an opportunity to make 1/3rd of a million dollars from 4 hours on the golf course and regardless of how financially well off Paige or the other competitors are...a million dollars on the line are stakes that make anyone sweat.
