I was wondering how much material is needed to be considered a writter and make money with what you have written.
Because I'm not writting a book, but rather an idea a lifestyle, and I was wondering if its insightfull how I could go about making money with it and get my early retirement.

may have to work on the spelling, punctuation and well err, knowing how to use 'insightful' in a sentence.

I'm kidding, assuming you will be writing in German.

There is, potentially, a point at which sheer quantity can outperform quality.
I suggest you start off with 10k words a day, moving up to 50k, 250k daily etc. Ultimately, if you bash enough words in, some of it will HAVE to come good. Probably.

well i dont want to write a thriller or anything, just something that will make click in the head of the reader. I'm writting something like a autobiography/insight into my way of life; my philosophy.
I was just wondering if I could get money with it, enough so I dont have to work anymore if the click in the head of the reader is intense enough.

I once earned $35 as a writer. I wrote 2 paragraphs which appeared in a publication called "The Quarterly", edited by Gordon Lish, who was at the time Raymond Carver's editor. The cover was designed by Chip Kidd.

you have nothing to say, you want to make a quick buck and that's all you want. you think people will be interested in your perspective on life and bankroll you to retirement.
you're going to fail miserably.
good luck.
