The statement above says a lot. For us, it was my wife's idea to take out some of our retirement money to buy our first motorhome so she could go travel nursing. Every time we have problems with the RV and I either have to scratch my head trying to figure out how to fix it myself, or bite the bullet and pay somebody else to fix it, I always seem to end up blaming my wife, "After all, if it wasn't for her we wouldn't have this thing and I wouldn't be stuck trying to fix it now!" blah, blah, blah...
Then I remember all of the memories that we've gathered up from the trips that we've taken the RV on over the years-memories that we wouldn't have if she hadn't talked me into buying the RV- and I realize that there really are more important things than worrying about the money all the time. If, heaven forbid, something should happen to one of us (terminal cancer, a fatal car accident, or any one of a number of other things that life throws at you) am I going to be grateful for the memories that we had in the RV, or still pouting because I'm having to spend a few hours here and there to do maintenance & repairs on the RV??
