Living in a single-wide that's almost fifty years old - it's mostly crap and probably out of code in a variety of ways but it's paid for, doesn't leak too much, and the property taxes this year were all of 65 dollars. I think of it as an over-sized Tine House, but like you said, the problem is the lot rent which is ridiculous here (Denver) too. The flip-side to that is that I wouldn't be able to find even a studio apartment or a converted garage for the same amount most anywhere in the metro area. When this gets to be too much I'm going to have to find some place more rural to move to or maybe go full nomad - I'm getting to the age where traveling in an RV isn't all that unusual. Maybe I'll start up another van-life channel and become YouTube famous!

The crazy thing is plenty of them love him but hate the corporations. Kind of like how they love the Duck Dynasty dude but hate company he's shilling for and Warren Buffett. Or hate the undocumented migrant workers but think the guy who is hiring them is a stand-up member of the community because he supports the local high school sports team and drives a nice, new truck. The dissonance is impressive.

@Ollie B We all get adverts in our mailboxes from companies trying to buy ours all the time. If it's an older home sometimes the park will buy the owner out just to get rid of the old unit and move in a new(er) one. Mine is almost fifty years old - it'll be demolished on-site when I go.

@unsettledonpurpose I majored in RTF for a few semesters back in the day and some sick part of me actually kind of enjoyed the post work. With the technology, software, and distribution platforms widely available today it's a lot easier to create a high quality production even while you are still in the field and release to the world. And while I'm sure it will still be work and as such will get tedious at times, there's an artistry to really getting it right that you usually only get with editing that's very satisfying. When it's time I'll have to figure out what my schtick is going to be, gear up and hit the highway! The future just might be kinda awesome!

@unsettledonpurpose That made my day, brother - too funny! I wish you success on that quest! But seriously, I understand what you're saying. The RV (or something similar) part is what calls to my spirit more than anything. Being an old AV Club nerd just makes me think maybe I'll get my shit together and do something creative - someday. Here's to someday. Good travels!
