      Oh yes, I forgot about step one. Be rich to begin with.

      Frankly it’s everybody else’s fault if they’re not taking this sage advice.

        How is it advice? You may all be very upset about it but the truth is that there are a lot of high paid workers in the US doing just this. Some have family money, some live frugally to do it.

        You seem to want to shit on the US, which is fine but a lot of people aren’t struggling and do take time off between high paying jobs. I’m not defending it, I live in Europe because I don’t agree with many things about the way of life but it is untrue to assume everyone in the US is poor and struggling.

          You don’t get it, you absolutely don’t get it. No one is saying it’s not possible to do this in the US. Been rich already isn’t a solution to the problem, the fact that you have to be rich already to make this work is the problem, regardless of what nation you’re talking about.
