Wow, talk about taking some "time off", this guy takes it to a whole different level. I understand the idea behind it and it does seem quite inviting, but like many others, who has the money to do so? I'd be happy if I could get a 2-week vacation from Gonink just to do what I wanted. But how will I get paid that way?

Having said that, I do believe that maybe finding more time to "think" and just absorb life around us is a better way to live. Seriously, if every one of us thinks about how much time we spend working, running the kids here and there, attending work events and what not, how much time will we have at the end of our lives?

It's a very interesting concept and maybe one that some of us (self included) could try to introduce into our lives even if only on a much smaller scale.
