I saw a story about a teacher that did this some years ago, just need to get the casino onboard beforehand. Some will give you a shot since the story can drum up publicity.
>After paying the 40% capital gains tax you'll actually only have $800k
800k is nearly make it territory if you can live without a car in a rent controlled place in a mid or low-tier or rural area you should be able to keep costs down, at 4% withdrawal rate that's 32k/year.
My make it number is 950k USD, or 38k/year based on my current spending with a paid off car. I actually only pay 32k/year (when I look at all the money that's left my account over the past year) but I aim for 38k so I can set aside some money for one-off expenses like car repairs, and replacing my computer/phone every 4-5 years.
I could live without a car as well since I live near a grocery store and don't get out much, removing the car maintenance/gas/insurance expense would bring me down to a 35k/year target or 875k, which is still short.
Saving up 75k is pretty easy once you're at 800k though, just move in with parents for a year or wage one more year.
Alternatively, OP could easily live on 24k/year comfortably in SEA for a few years, reinvesting an extra 8k/year and letting his portfolio compounded even more until it's enough to retire back in america in a few years.
