Received the following via email and thought I’d share 
I’m tired of paying mortgage bills, utility bills, and property taxes, (rent!). I want to live more simply, pack up the family and move into a travel-trailer. I don’t mind being called ‘trailer trash’, but I want to get your opinion.
What do you think about my decision?
Who are you, John Madden?

For exactly the same reasons he listed, I’ve been giving serious consideration to buying a houseboat or boat to live aboard. The cost of such a boat is surprisingly affordable. I could pay for one in cash, with assets I have that are completely liquid. The reasons to not do it just keep falling, and this post, along with the photos cause me to lean even further toward the boat.
