I wonder if only working a few months a year is enough to keep your skills updated to the point where you can charge $100/hr at will.

- knodi123 13y agoI'd have a lot more marketable skills if I wasn't forced to do the same old thing day in and day out for my boss all year. I had a 1 month sabbatical last year and I learned a ton.
- mavdi 13y agoIn my book, 6 months of inactivity is more than enough to make someone irrelevant.
- flurdy 13y agoInactivity and not working is not the same. You can be pretty busy with personal or charitable projects whilst not working. So skills-wise it is not a problem if you keep tinkering and learning new stuff, although not if you just take a 6 month holiday. You might have a harder time explaining the gap in your CV/Resume, especially to more blinkered enterprise companies but that is another issue.
