What if they showed up with a gap and simply said "I have plenty of money and took the time to myself, my family and my interests"?

(I've never had a resume gap but that's going to be my explanation if/when I do.)

It's bad to say that. Companies don't want their employees to be financially secure and have the leverage to quit at any time.
