A "break" from work I agree. A "reset", I'm not so sure (though I'd love it to be the case!). If they're drawing from their savings and so on, then at some point they'll have to go back to whatever shitty jobs are available -- though now they and society will be much more brittle as the retirement buffer is gone.
If they took the time and money to reinvest in their skills -- I'd agree it would be a reset. But the cynical side of me says they are not, most of them.
It's just a question -- everyone is talking about this great revolution -- however who's paying the rent? I keep coming back that question. Maybe I don't have all the information, but I sure have to pay rent. I wonder how others do this too.
Thanks for your suggestion of the NPR podcast -- I'll check it out :)
