Renewing a temp residency and becoming a citizen

3 years ago
I came to Portugal from the US about 1.5 years ago after obtaining a D7 visa. Renewed my first temporary resident permit last year, and currently it's valid till 2023. My plan is to renew one more time before applying for a citizenship. My "means of subsistence" has been my remote job which got me the D7 in the first place.
Does anybody know if I can quit the job now, and lose any kind of income, and still pursue my plans? I have more than a million dollars of assets in the US which I can transfer to my bank account in PT.
Thank you for your advice!
