How long could you go without working?

I was thinking about this with the extended holiday coming up. I figure I could make it about a year before I had to dip into retirement or run out of money without having a job (without selling any large assets). If I sold all my shite I could go multiple years I'm sure.
How long do you reckon you could go before you had to get another job?

Mmmm, 4 months would probably be very very very bad for me

You know at the big people table it’s considered poor form to speak of such things.
Not everyone is as well off as some of us are.

PTO with a paycheck? I could go a few weeks.
Unemployed? I put too much stock in being a provider and don't like feeling worthless. I would become depressed quickly so I would take just about ANY job within a week or two.

Money wise, probably around 8 months to a year or so.
Psyche wise, about 2 weeks.

Aren't you like 22 and live in an apartment? Your 2012 Accord isn't worth as much as you think.

No you don’t
I know this bc you’re previous posts indicate you’re the classic one upper.

I work for the fun of it not the need.

I wouldn't take any job, but I have no idea what I'd do if I didn't have a job. A lot of time, and no money, sounds miserable

I could go 6 months easily.

Cars aren't large assets.

Unless you are a trust fund kid, you don't have any large assets in your early 20s more than likely.

I could retire tonight, but I don't want to. I enjoy working. I doubt that I'll ever quit working.

Two weeks? It would be a rough go before the unemployment checks started rolling in and even then it would be tough to survive.

If I could retire now, i would... but I can't, so I work
If I lost my job, I'd be looking for a new one within a month... take a few weeks off to sleep, fish, drink and play putt putt

I make more money than both of my parents. I financed my entire education on my own, and had like $500 in my checking account when I started working. The only thing my family has is land.
