When should be the last straw?

Six grand a month is comfortable, assuming that you don't have any significant debt. You're just going to have to get used to not working as much. It may be wise to anticipate a bit of a challengethere - I found that I was climbing the walls after four weeks.

Where you guys off to, BTW?

I think first we will spend a month or two in the maldives exploring the place. She has been thinking of going there for a long time.

And then perhaps head over to Europe for a few months as for the rest I think we will plan from there.

When you said climbing the wall what do you mean by that?

Some people describe me as a workaholic (personally, I don't see myself that way) - I do love my work though. In July, the missus and I went on a five-week trip through Europe, the US, Hong Kong and Singapore (I currently reside in Melbourne).

By the fourth week, I was itching to get back to work. I've got a competent team at the office and nothing was out of control, but being on holiday for so long just didn't sit right on me, and that's what I mean when I say I was climbing the walls.

That said, the second day back from vacation turned out to be a 33-hour day. I was happy as a clam.

After hearing from all your opinion, I decided to sit down and have a talk with her last night. The final conclusion is yes, I will be going away but her will be bringing along with me as well.

We both did eventually come to this compromise, rather than me spending more time and effort trying to increase my passive income by another $4,000 to $10,000 a month and causing so much quarrels between us, the current $6,000 a month I am getting is good enough to last us for the next year and a half or so travelling around the world.

Alrite thanks for your advice guys, I greatly appreciate them.
