Those who are retired already or thinking of retiring are having to rethink their futures due to the current economic mess. Investments have taken some huge losses and a lot of people don’t think they can retire right now. But that might not be true.
You might want to think about more inexpensive ways of living, but that are also be full of enjoyment. You might want to choose to live in a park model mobile home. These can be either seasonal or year-round residences.
You might ask why is this way of living cheaper? You can buy a nice used park model for $15,000 to $20,000 (that’s furnished as well). For a minimum of $25,000, you can purchase a brand new model.
