I agree that if you live in your RV and own/rent no sticks and bricks, you are full timing but what you call it is no matter. Also "stealth camping" as I understand it means parking innocuously along the road or in some parking lot somewhere. Boondocking to me means out in the wilderness somewhere probably on BLM land where there are no hook-ups or iron rangers.
The life you are contemplating is not going to be easy. Congrats on keeping your day jobs but society isn't going to look kindly upon those who stealth camp. Cities and towns often have ordinances that prohibit this. Cops will sometimes pressure you to move on and you likely won't be able to enjoy the pleasure of an adult beverage around a campfire at night after a hard day at work. Camping where camping is encouraged is fun, camping where it isn't is work. I'm not condemning you or even looking down on you, I'm just trying to inject some reality into your fantasy.
