I have decided to not wait until retirement to do things that I want. I don't know if I will have health and money to do things when I retire. I have a full time job and I try to manage my time well so that I have free time and time to pursue hobbies. As a result my career will most likely suffer and overall I will make less money but I am OK with that trade off. I am happier, less stressed out, get time to pursue my hobbies, have more time with family. I think that's a good deal.
- ghaff 8y agoI haven't done it more recently for a variety of reasons but in a former job I took month-long vacations every couple of years. I definitely knew co-workers who thought this was just shocking and had trouble wrapping their heads around just taking extended time off like that. (I still take my full vacation; I just haven't taken it in such a large chunk recently.)
