    I'd like to find some property on some water be it ocean, river, stream or lake to build a cabin on it.

    maybe try something a little remote in The San Juans. Not sure if that fits your criteria but it would be amazing. But yeah I’m guessing that might be tough to book right now.

    Breitenbush lost half its structures in the fire last fall. Detroit was essentially leveled. They may be starting to rebuild, but I don’t think that there’s much available there yet.

    Drove through there this weekend, still mostly foundations in ruins. They have been starting to rebuild though. Very very sad and it totally wrecked the landscape.

    Too far for me to drive until I successfully switch from hemodialysis to peritoneal dialysis.

    My wife is now talking about selling our place in Florida, buying a few RV's, then renting them out on Outdoorsy. (Kind of like the AirBnB of RV's) Ay yi yi...

    ...good luck with that liability hell -- not to mention RVs depreciate at least 50% the moment you drive them off the lot!

    A reason why you rent them out. It's commonly called a business plan.

    3 things they say not to invest in....RV, Boat, Airplane....all 3 are money pits that depreciate...have high maintenance costs and insurance liabilities that will make it nearly impossible to make a profit renting them.....I'm talking about the big RVs...not the mini Winnie's or Sunraders......rentals get abused ...people don't give a shit about caring for them if they rent them..you'd be much better off renting U haul trailers and moving trucks.

    Here's an idea...find someone you know who has a cabin on a lake, befriend them (that means become their friend HCP), slowly gain their trust, and then when the time comes, have them will the cabin to you, and then kill them in their sleep.


    Easy peasy.

    Here ya go, man!

    https://www.cnbc.com/2021/06/24/how-this-millennial-family-makes-a-living-traveling-in-their-rv.html

    This family sold their house to live in an RV—now they earn over $80,000 a year traveling across the US


    It’s hard to get hold of Karen Akpan. One week, the 32-year-old might be visiting family in Florida with her husband, Sylvester, and their son Aiden; the next, the family is sunbathing in Aruba or sightseeing in the Dominican Republic. In the past month alone, their travels also included Colombia, South Carolina, and Savannah, Georgia, where CNBC Make It caught up with them.

    The family wasn’t always so mobile. But at the end of 2019, Karen and Sylvester, 41, took a hard look at their finances and decided to make a change. They sold both of their homes in California (they lived in one and rented out the other), used $14,000 from their savings to buy an RV off of Facebook Marketplace in early 2020 and started traveling around the U.S.......
