Default How Much Oil Pressure Is Enough?

Just curious. In general, how much oil pressure is enough for a car or light truck? I'm not having any problems. After a cold start, my '98 4dr 4wd 116,000 miles with 5W/30 reads 60 psi. Fully warmed up, it reads about 40 psi at highway speed and 20 psi when idling.
