Yeah, I easily make twice as much as I spend.

So I take a year of now and then, if I feel like it.

Do you ever find this makes finding a new job on return difficult?

I am not the same person you asked the question to, but I guess if you work on a couple of hobby projects and actually release those in your break year, you won't have holes in your CV.

Good point. I guess it depends on what kind of break you want...

Job searching with "stranger" companies becomes harder.

But if you leave enough coworkers who want to work with you again at each job, you can always find jobs through them.

If you make twice as much as you need without being extremely frugal, you likely have the skills to compensate that.
