How to Get More Vacation Time

Posted by Prolific Programmer Tue, 15 Apr 2008 15:33:00 GMT

Americans simultaneously get the least vacation in the 1st world, while not producing the most wealth per hour. We only get 2 weeks off per year on average and work 60-plus hours per week. However, this gentleman I met yesterday has come up with a novel-to-me way to get more time off.

He'll work from August/September till May/June, live frugally in the US, and spend the rest of the year in the beach resort of Curçao, Venezuela. It sounds like a wonderful life and one that would give me a heart attack, because I value consistency, above damn near everything else.
