Didn't hear the call but how much of an opinion can you get on a short call?

Apart from initial financials, I'd still likely want to analyze how much a pain it is to maintain it and how much use I'm going to get out of it. Buying it is the easy part, dealing with issues around it are headaches I'd want to limit. If RV'ing is totally their thing, it'll be a good purchase if they fully utilize it. Personally, I generally can't see myself throwing so much capital at something because I can't see myself utilizing something to that extent. I think I'd rather rent. But no right or wrong answer based on the description of the situation IMO.

lots of factors, how will he fund, Roth, IRA or cash?

And in terms of usage, is he actually sleeping in this RV every night with his wife? In that case he is providing housing and transportation for > 8% of his net worth...not too shabby, granted motor homes depreciate, homes sometimes appreciate.


But to the pt of richest man in the ground, maybe the guy had no heirs?
