They Did It!
A post from Ty and Mari's blog that documents their 4-hour workweek personal journey:
Last month we sold our beach house in San Diego, CA along with ALL our furniture (within 48 hours flat thanks to Craigslist.com!)… went out and bought a beautiful 34′ motorhome (shopped like crazy for two weeks solid and found an amazing deal on a pre-owned Class A for under $30k total). We now live full time in the RV and are gearing up to start traveling the US/Canada.
It’s an incredible feeling to own our own home free and clear, to have practically NO bills - just campground fees, internet connection & cell phones. Oh yeh, and fuel!
What do we do for income? I already have several e-products that sell online, plus I do consulting and coaching via email and phone. My hubby is a real estate investor and we have a couple properties, more on the way.
We could quite comfortably live on less than $1000/mo if we wanted to. There are tons of campground deals to be had and of course dry-docking is free.
Truth is, we really do not *need* much at all to be happy and enjoy life. Making ourselves downsize from a 2600 square feet, 3bed/4bath home to approx a 275 square feet mobile living space was the best thing we’ve done together… ever! Our marriage is the strongest it’s been, we have tons of energy, and have way more fun every day.
Can't wait to catch up with them in a couple of months and see how they are doing. One more role model that says we can do it too. After all, we have a 1200 square foot house on an acre on a lake calling us. Already bought and paid for. What are we waiting for?
