Seriously. I have very similar feelings as him- that as a father I want to be home with my wife and kids as much as possible. Right now my work week is pretty close to 40 hours, and I consider that a big success compared to most people I know. But my career goal is working towards more flexible working hours, and hopefully less total hours with higher profitability. But it's a dream, and I'm not sure how realistic a dream it is.
"No one is stopping you from living in the mountains!" sounds like it's trying to be empowering, but how do you afford it? Then how do you come back into the job market ~5 years later and look attractive to potential employers?
