ChubbyFIRE wealth level depending on residence canton

Hi there, I'm a 28M Spanish guy, and my wife and I recently decided to move within ~2 years to Switzerland for good (already started learning German and so on).

I know that there's no such a thing as a magic undisputed wealth number to be considered as ChubbyFIRE, but I'm curious how this approximate level can vary from canton to canton because of taxes, cost of living, home prices... Has someone any data about it?

Danke und LG.

What is the point of this post? How much do you have today in assets? Accumulating ChubbyFIRE amounts of assets is usually reserved for specialists that earn a lot of money. People in that group can usually make similar amounts in other regions.

With your last sentence I guess you mean the accumulation phase. However, I'm thinking about the FI phase.

If just for FI, look up lump sum taxation and real estate prices per canton. That will determine where the best will be. Italy would probably be better if you’re just trying to minimise costs.
