Maybe. But I doubt it. Having more money means your possessions are more expensive, which means you keep working the same amount you were before to maintain the new status quo.
I'd do it if they paid me enough in that year to retire. But if I still have to work 40+ when I come back then its not worth it.
My best friend and his sister have a "warrior" father. Lifelong Army, built like a gorilla, loves to kill foreigners in the name of freedom...all that stuff. He left for a year twice while they were growing up. They were seriously screwed up and undisciplined kids. Maybe its because their Dad was gone...maybe not. I'm not taking the chance with my kiddo.
That's just me though, maybe Ed likes "stuff" more than I do and its worth it for him and his family. I'm not saying he's fucking his life up, just sayin' I wouldn't do it.
