Gotta retire to finally start living life
A lot of them just want to travel and never got the chance before they retired.
My wife and I are going to sell our house and live in a house boat when we retire. I don't see any issue with living in an RV. I am a millennial. Why pay property taxes and a mortgage? Travel the country and see the sights before you die.
Yeah but it's obvious he's talking about your suburban boomer who mostly keeps the RV in the driveway all year or just takes it to the lake.
My boomer parents just bought a lot on a campground and a huge trailer to live in. Had a yard, gazebo, two storage sheds and a cover to park under. They'll pay 1/4 of what they were paying in mortgage and insurance. They are putting their house up for sale this spring. I don't blame them one bit.
RV's are expensive and only useful for people who have a lot of free time, like Boomers. Or Meth Chemists.
So they don't have to be around their kids
After they get evicted/foreclosed they turn to "boondocking" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uwm06C23sLw
To chase the kids and grandkids who split to different parts of the country to get away from them!
Why else?
"the good life" "Golden years"
These terms for 50% are just pipe dreams that they're not allowed to have.
For 25% (not 50) They buy shitty little mobile homes in RV parks and drink schlitz or blatz around a small fire "pit" and stare at the same thing day after day.
These fucktards have never lived, only existed, as they've never been taught how to live and never had the mental fortitude to desire anything , only do what they were told. Personally, I love RV parks, as much as I do college campuses ...it keeps the retards herded.
pls no h8, I'm going to college for a technical degree I swear.
No one who goes to "college" goes for anything other than a willful acceptance of servitude through debt.
Go to a vocational school and learn an actual skill/service. You'll save yourself years of debt reimbursement payback while having a transferable skill that'll always be useful and in demand.
But...a vocational school won't get me a nice comfy desk job where I don't have to do work...
edit: also, the jewry tricked me into signing up for the military back when I wasn't as red-pilled as I currently am. So it's kind of sunk-cost fallacy at this point.
I tend to agree with your thoughts
I borrowed my dads rv for two weeks and drove around Texas, it was awesome I stayed in state and National parks met a lot of cool people and got to experience the whole state. I stayed in one spot where I parked 10’ from the ocean for 1.50 a day boon-docking. Also more than half of the people doing it full time where in their 20s and 30s with young kids working online.
Freedom to live in multiple places throughout the year. If retired, probably keeps life more interesting than staying in one spot.
Some RVs are really nice. There are some that cost about a million. However, I've seen quite a few really cool ones for around 250,000. Some just use them recreationally and still have a home. While others, who live in them full time, have the advantage of moving around. And it still cost anywhere from 600 to 1200 or more per month just for hookups at each place. Most are gated with a resort type atmosphere and offer activities for the retired visiting them.
