cause if everyone was getting 10k USD per day and was rich the value of money would be gone ofc

we have people working fastfood jobs or driving taxis barely making ends meet, could the world still function if everyone lived a comfortable life? maybe everyone was at least middle class?

OP you really need to define this better. 10k USD in some countries is multiple times the average yearly wage. But let’s stick to the US so I can give you a real answer.

“What if we give everyone x money a day” it will lead to inflation, the actual amount doesn’t really matter. Whether 10k or a million a day it will cause inflation. Really like the USD, Euro, Pound you think of the ‘dollar’ as the big number and the ‘cent’ as the small number, but if you did what you’d propose the dollar would be seen more like the ‘cent’ like how some places (for instance Japan and the Yen) don’t really have a ‘cent’

*Note, there is a difference between OP’s suggestion and a universal basic income where everyone gets ‘enough’ to survive

As far as ‘middle class’ there really is no way to define that but based on your context yes it is possible for everyone to have ‘enough’ the problem comes down to for some people there will never be enough and they will bribe politicians to make sure the law works to give them even more
