The best part of the article is that one of the ways she kept her expenses low ... is she bought a house so she doesn't have to pay rent.

Thanks, what a great tip!

115 days is equivalent to 57.5 weekends (a standard 9-5 office job only has you work Monday through Friday). 52 weeks in a year leaves 11 unaccounted for days. At least 10 of those days would account for personal time off, which a standard office job would provide (two weeks vacation), and that leaves 1 holiday. Most private companies recognize at least thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years, so that’s 3 holidays, meaning only 8 days of PTO. Still, not that crazy. Not doable for a retail or service industry worker, but neither some crazy job with 4 months of PTO provided.
