It makes a lot of good points; one longer is not necessarily better and another point that almost seems to conflict is that it takes a week to just unwind. I agree with both those points as for me; 4 days of partying is about right, on day 5 I am ready to go home, but I had a stressful job two jobs ago as the company had more than their requirement of assholes and it literally took me a week to stop thinking about one in particular. Best thing I ever did was quitting that job.

They got one thing dead wrong...the anticipation leading up to the trip brings more joy than the actual trip? They haven't been on a mongering trip

I'll bet I know why: The guy taking his tribe on vacation envisions banging the old lady, the K*ds being happy, the venue being relaxing and then when he gets there the old lady is on the rag; either literally or figuratively, the K*ds are bitchy and the venue sucks like only a place like Disney World can. Whereas on a mongering vacation you already know basically that there will be young pu*sy to bang, good food, drink and the camaraderie of fellow mongers!!
