Making a living off shares is easy,

Making a living from winning the lottery is easy.

... When you choose the right lottery numbers.
 
Depends what your definition of living is.

If you take a typical divi return of 5% then £100,000 will give you £5K pa to live on.
 
You have to pay tax on dividend income. So have to risk 1 million pounds to earn a good pre tax salary. And you will lose out to inflation if the share price doesnt rise because you're raping all your divs.
