My 2 cents worth, not sure this was said.
At my state retirement meetings, yes I got paid to go to 16 hours of estate, retirement planning. Many have a big pool of money and need to decide what to do with it.
They strongly stated do not sell your house to buy a RV and full time in the RV. Unless you plan on having cash on hand to buy a home or condo in a few years.
The reason was given if or when you want to settle somewhere. The RV will not be worth much compared to when new and housing costs likely will be higher. So, you may not be able to get back into home ownership.
It was just commonsense to me, planning ahead, do not put all your money into 1 investment. Do not spend your life savings to RV full time.
I might want to travel around for a few months at a time, but the full timing for ever life style is not for me or my wife. Some can and will do it. My hats off to you. I would never want to take away someone's life dreams of living on the road. I want a home to come home to and call it mine.
