I have saved up enough money in my vacation fund to not worry about getting a job within the month. Some people buy houses that they barely can afford, cars, new furnature, and a bunch of other things. I save 30% of my income in an account to allow me to choose what I want to do in life instead of having necessity dictate what I need to do. True, I might be driving an 11 year old car that I fix my self instead of getting a loan from the bank to drive a new one. I currently rent an apartment, which can be debatable if it is a good move or not sometimes. But, I can move and not have to worry about selling it.

My bills are very low. If I do lose my job, my rent at $610 is the highest bill, $45 for car insurance, electric at $25 and cell phone at $25 each month are the main other bills I can think of.

Yes. I could easily get a job in Washington DC, if I wanted to live there. But, I would first look at places in Arizona and Nevada. Maybe with a few years of experience I could find a good job there.

I think it would be fun to take something I have invented and try to create a business.

I would like to travel when I am in my late 20s, early 30s with no kids to worry about. I could easily take 6 months in between jobs and go where ever I wanted.

I would like to get caught up and organized. Maybe go back to college for a few classes. Do some research into topics related to my line of work that I don't have time for right now because I am at work 50 hours a week.

I don't have kids, but I would think that a large majority of Moms would stay home if they could.

No, but I only asked this because I thought that there might be someone in their 50s or 60s who just wouldn't go back to work because they didn't need the money.

I would like to take a year off to build a house (with help from professionals).
