True, obviously any person has to assess their personal situation. If a person is looking, it usually means the person needs to look....or just simply feels it is best for them. I could go for a spell without working, but truthfully I'd go nuts after a week of being out of action. Everybody has their own situation. My wife says I'm allowed to do anything I want - so long as I'm working. :)
