Living the dream

My uncle who graduated from his emergency medicine residency three years ago is living the dream. He works 10 shifts per month, 5 in the beginning of the month and 5 in the last week of the month (all 12 hour shifts) he works locums only (texas). For the more than two weeks he has in between his shifts, he travels the world and does a lot of mission trips in Africa! Who else knows someone living this type of lifestyle, do you think its feasible for the long term?
