Buy a boat, get a boat guy. Whatever makes you happy. Live the life you wanted... for a bit.
Life is too short not to enjoy the few successes you will get. Put away a million or two and then enjoy.
Live a little, people die a lot.
Everyone here wants to make it sound as if 'it is not enough'. Screw that. 8M puts you in an elite group, even here on HN. So most of these people here are giving you advice with zero experience of your situation. As long as you have a safety net or even a fallback to your normal/previous life, enjoy it the best way you can.
After all, despite what we may all claim, a good part of why we do what we do is for the money.
