The people I know who do this are either exceptionally talented that employment will never be an issue for them in their lifetime and/or (it's usually and), they can burn through $100k no problem, any day of the week.
Nobody I know is leaving a $70k a year job to take a sabbatical. They're usually leaving a $400k+ per year job and there'll be another similar job waiting for them when they're ready to jump back in.
Kids are another huge factor that changes this. I don't think I've known anyone who's done something like this with kids in the picture.
