RV vs Small Business

Posted By from July 8, 2009
I recently sold a house (I got my real estate license last fall, but that's a nother story) to a couple that had been living in an RV for the past year and half.  Before they bought the RV, they sold their house and sold most of their 'stuff' or gave it away.  The RV literally became their home.

They travelled all over the US & Canada including Alaska!  And this was during the gas hike when it was like $5/gallon!

Anyways, that hits so close to home for me....been there, done that! It just reminded me of the time when we lived in our camper van for 4 years.  During those years I couldn't imagine life any other way nor did I want it. 

Two years ago, just before we decided to try our hands as a "small business owner by opening Streak Hair Studio", we were very close to buying a deluxe class C motorhome.  We were ready & willing to hit the road playing music anywhere & everywhere again.  For whatever reason, we opted for the "small business idea" which we just sold last week.

So here I am again, 2 years later, wanting everything that comes with life on the road.   I wonder what it would be like had we bought the RV, would we be selling it now?
