Great!

Let's be honest - most working professionals (especially in Software) earn more money than they need. I think it's much better to have more time - time with you family, time to be outdoors, time to be healthy - than it is to have more money

Say that in 20 years when you are looking at how to retire for the next 20-30 years with no pension, and from companies who don't want old people.

Indeed. And even if money is your motivator, here is an extra 10-20 hours a week to work on one's side project. Do not see the downside, here.
