A family acquaintance of mine was a consultant with an interesting work/life balance: - He had no permanent physical residence aka he didn't own a house or rent an apartment (he did have a PO Box in a city just for a legal address) - Everything he owned was in 4 suitcases - Other than scheduled PTO, the firm decided where he would go for consulting projects (often on short notice) which could be anywhere in the world - When he DID have PTO, the firm would pay for ANYTHING he wanted to do. Rent a speedboat? Check! Fly him to Asia to see a friend? Check! He had a girlfriend (who I was friends with and how I knew him) so I don't think he was totally isolated. That being said, must be tough to put down roots in that situation.
