Agreed. I would love to take some time off, but despite the wage slave memery...somebody's got to pay the bills so I keep working.

Probably. I'm in between roommates, and luck had a huge part to do with it, but I do own my house outright. I have a positive net worth and even though I've never made >$100k/yr I'm on track to match my expenses with investment income some time in the next 10-15 years.
Sure, sometimes I wish I had more money and was closer to retirement, and I wish that I didn't fuck up my last relationship since I'm back to square one socially, but I'm in a pretty good spot /biz/-wise and I'm on track with a plan that I believe is realistically achievable without relying on any windfall events. I was a /b/tard in school though, so everything is a step up from there.
