34. I once worked the entirety of August without a single day off during a summer job at university. Which was fantastic, because the base pay was already good, but you got time-and-a-half after 40 hours, double time after 70 and when the week rolled over if you didn't have a full 24 hours off (which I didn't), you were paid double time for that first 24 hour period while still having the time worked count towards the next week's overtime.

Given that I was working 12-16 hour days at the time, I paid off my entire university bill for the coming year - including room and board - by week three of that, leaving the rest of the summer's income as spending cash.

I'd never do it again because I had no social life and there were nights where I had to sleep in the truck I worked in, but damn if those paycheques weren't fantastic at the time.
