What do you consider to be a livable income (for someone else)?

As a follow up to the question I asked on Wednesday (How much do you want to earn per year?), I’d like to ask a similar question today:

What do you consider to be a livable amount of income for another person? To rephrase, I’d ask what number you’d use to fill in this blank:

A person ought to be able to live on $(blank) income per year.

Yesterday, I talked about my revised posting schedule here at Back Nine Finance. The information that I have been gathering from all of you this week is going to help me with a post I am working on for next week. Although my pace of posting will be slowing a bit, I am working on stepping up the quality of material. I want to continue to talk about topics that are interesting to people whose finances are a bit more advanced.

Thanks for hanging with me this week while I catch my breath a bit. I appreciate it.

See you all bright and early Monday morning. Be prepared for a lively discussion!

Please help me out with an answer to this question:

A person ought to be able to live on $(blank) income per year. (fill in the blank)
