Who Else Will Retire To Full-time In 2018?
I don't know if this will be a popular thread or a dumb idea, but here goes. I saw a post here recently (maybe two) where members said they plan to retire and begin full-time RV life in 2018. That's...

Go for it! Your plan sounds fine and it seems you sure know enough to make it work for you and not against you :)
We are semi-retiring in June 2018. Hubby will work Jan to June and then quit whatever small job he gets to entertain himself...and we will have June to Jan. to travel more BUT THE thing for us is a kid in school :) 12 yr old. She wants to stay in school and finish in this school system so we have about 6 yrs to 'stay put' before total freedom.
But we are going to travel more from June to end of Dec. and take her out of school for longer trips as needed thru this time. It is time to put in more travel with her before she is off and moving on her own.
Hubby is 52 and I am 56 and we have enough money to make it all work for us now so we are going for it sooner than later.
We are COE, state park people, we don't do more expensive private cgs cause they just aren't what we enjoy so we know how to cut costs for rv'ing definitely and we have no problems stopping at truck stops for '4-5 hrs' sleep for free while traveling, we have done it alot and will continue to do just that. We are frugal and can pinch a penny also :) :)
If you can make it work for you then definitely move forward. Life is a monster adventure to attack and find what works for you :) Best of luck and report back and update us on your ventures and how it is going for you!
