Get yourself over here legally, live the life and come back and tell us
how much vacation time you get :). Unless you manage to make a million
(and even then frankly) you will be just like the overworked,
undervactioned population you envy.
Remember too that your memories of good times are based on someone else
providing those good times ie your parents.
I wish you well, you sound like a dreamer :)
