doublewide, I agree with you — been there, done that.

I still own a mcmansion and I’m disgusted with that lifestyle everyday. The reason I still own the house is that I was lucky to have bought it years ago and the carrying costs are comparatively low. I’m looking to getting something more livable when the time is right.

Your kid is lucky that you love traveling. I lived and traveled in many countries as a kid with my parents and those years were the best of my life. I wouldn’t want to trade my own childhood for the “stability” of a mc mansion in the suburbs.
