You're describing a level of money below '**** you' money. The Saudi princes that are paying for this show have '**** you' money as an example, Austin isn't close to that level.
I guess there are two sides to '**** you' money. I'm mean the side that can piss away money without care just for a joke, opposed to the 'screw you, I'm going home' level that Austin has where he can live his live without issue.
see, I always considered "f*** you" money to be enough money where you literally don't need to do anything anymore.
Austin probably made his and he doesn't need Saudi money to have "f*** you" money. His net worth is apparently $45-million as of 2018. That's definitely enough money for him to say "f*** you" to anyone who wants him to do something that he doesn't want to, just like the way Conor's $100-million was "f*** you" money for him because he lives a way more lavish lifestyle than a Steve Austin was. Similar to any of us who could probably get $5-million and it'd be enough for any of us to say "f*** you" to anyone who wanted us to do something we didn't want to (as long as one was smart with that $5-million).
Like I said, I consider "f*** you" money to be that that allows one to not have to do something they don't want to, and I'm willing to bet all I have that Steve Austin has "f*** you" money. As someone mentioned in the thread, if Austin didn't come back to actually do something that makes sense and wrestle CM Punk at a Wrestlemania, I don't see him coming to wrestle in Saudi Arabia. Maybe I'll be wrong next year or something, but I don't see it. His final match being at Wrestlemania 19 vs. The Rock is perfect.
