My wife dropped a bombshell on me tonight!

Hey good folks,
I'm retired but my wife wants to work for five more years for financial reasons. Tonight she said if we sell the house and her fancy car we could get a big diesel pusher and she would retire tomorrow but we would be full timers with five animals. Sounds impossible to me.

I need some advice about full timing. Downsides, upsides, and otherwise.:)

Does anybody full time with three cats and two dogs? Yikes!

~Thanks, John

It was almost WWIII at my house 3 years when I told my wife I wanted to work 1 more year! IMHO the most important thing is finances! You don't want to retire and have a lot of big payments that makes your life uncomfortable! If you sell your house no more property taxes and house maintenance or house payments! I spend 7 months a year (Fall/Winter/Spring) at the Beachcomber Resort in Lake Havasu City, AZ. We pay $500.00 per month rent plus electricity. We travel with one dog (Standard Red Poodle) and a bird (Yellow Naped Amazon) with no troubles. There's one lady at the RV Resort we stay at that walks 3 small dogs. The cats shouldn't be very much problem IMHO. Wherever you decide to winter you'll have to check to see if there is a restriction on pets. Good Luck
