Not a bad life. Working only 1 or 2 days a week and having the rest for yourself would be pretty good. Sort of like the opposite of what normal people have to go through. I wonder why more doctors, surgeons, bankers, etc. don't do this. I know a dentist who is 62 but is still working at his own clinic for the past 30 years. He even works on Saturdays and works until 5 o'clock. With that sort of income, I would have paid off my student loans and retired in my 30's.
I personally think a lot of people actually like work. Like they are not happy unless they are working, or fear of doing nothing. A good buddy of mine is like this, granted they will always bitch about how busy they are and it sucks they have no free time, but you can tell they really enjoy being busy. You can tell these people apart because when they do have free time, they are constantly working on "side projects" and making sure they have no free time.
