I took a tired deep breath, not sure if that counts.

True. I’m 60 and still do rewarding work but damn!, gimme that check! (I wouldn’t quibble if it was 1 million!)

TNP can recall watching and can name the old fictional 50s series that always began each episode with that week’s characters being handed a million dollar check.

No, no I haven’t all the grand-this and great-thats passed when I was still young and so were they.  
Some 80s and 90s in there but I’m pretty sure about the century mark.
