Are You a Full-time RVer?

I was at work today (very slow...a total of four tables!) and something out the window caught my eye. I couldn't help but to notice it. In the deserted parking lot outside, an RV pulled up with its motor running. I so wanted them to come inside, and not because of the future tip they might leave me, but because I so wanted to talk to them and ask them questions. Were they a fulltime RVer? What did they like about traveling via RV? Do they have Internet on the RV? Very important questions.

I never got my chance. After standing at the window for a really long time, I watched them finally roll away. Gone. Into the oblivion from my standpoint; but for them, into a life I would die to have.

The guy who was working with me thought I was crazy as I went around the restaurant singing, "I'm in love! I'm in love!" They think I'm loonier than a looney-tune anyway.

Man. It was incredible. As I was looking out the window, I wondered what they were doing inside. What did it look like inside and what was that incredible feeling they must be feeling right now? Did they feel cooped up or was that all part of the experience?

I'm going to start adding some links in the right-hand sidebar of people who blog about RVing so I don't forget to stop by and visit. I feel that blogs give me more of a first-hand look as to what is involved. Better than any travel magazine could, that's for sure.

If you are a fulltime RVer and would like me to visit your blog, leave your url in the comment box. I would surely love to visit your blog and find out what it's really like to give up everything and take to the open road. One day I hope to be blogging about the very same thing. Here's to wishing and making dreams come true...here, here!

Full-time RVing?

Okay, now I'm intrigued. Go here.. http://www.marketingmakesmoney.com/index.htm.

Now, I know there's a lot of stuff on the Internet with a lot of make it rich schemes, but this guy really knows how to pull you in. Wouldn't it be so cool to be able to retire at an early age and live off of what you do over the Internet. I mean, enough to actually live well?

I'm not sure what business he's talking about, but I have a business already. I write books. Now, how can I take this business and make enough to live off of? Better yet, how can I take this business, buy an RV and tour the country selling my books?

Not sure. I know there's a lot of people out there doing it, though.

So, I have a plan. I'm going to become a full-time RVer in the next five years. It's a goal of sorts. If I make it before, fine, but did you read the article there that said if you work after the age of 55, it cuts off some of the rest of your living years?

I don't doubt that. Work kills, that's for sure. Especially when you're older.

As a few of you know, I wait tables at night. In the daytime, I'm on this thing 24/7, learning different ways to make money and I have succeeded at least in finding out some of the secrets of good online book promotion. But can I take what I have learned, and the ebooks I have written and with more ebooks coming out, plus online book promotion classes I'll be teaching, and make a living off of it enough to quit my waitressing job?

I'm not a risk taker, but I figure if I make myself a goal of five years to be THERE, then maybe it can happen.

Picture this. You're in your RV and you can go anywhere in the country you want to. You pick a destination and stop for awhile. Your RV has come with Internet access (I think there's a dish involved?) and you can continue to make money. Or, you can even put a table in front of your RV and sell your paperback books, if need be.

I know people have different kinds of dreams, but I say this is a dream that I'm going to make happen. Set your goal and work toward it. I have five years to do this. If I haven't succeeded in pushing myself to make sure it happens in five years or less, then there's something wrong.

I can do this...I can do this...I can do this....
