Is a righteous gentile saved?
Lubab:
Yes. As far as I understand it, gentiles should work every day.

You mean NO vacation?
No day off for a family to go on a picnic?
jdl4ever:
I don't think it's healthy to work every single day.
MarZutra:
I believe that it is only obligatory for Jews to rest on the Sabbath while the gentile can rest whatever day they so desire as, I am given to believe, the Torah's specifities only apply to the Jews and the Gentile - Noahide - while the rest of the Gentile are to learn HaShem's moral ways/laws from the former. Perhaps I am wrong but that is how I understand it.

I looked into this further. Jews are like the brain, and gentiles more like the heart which always need to be pumping in order of the body to work.
The brain needs to rest and go back to it's spiritual source and this is like how Jews need Shabbos as a time to sort of detach from the world and only think about G-dly matters. Gentiles should not be doing this any day.
With that said, if a gentile want to take a vacation in order so that he will be able to be rested in order to work better then that is fine!
