I have discovered it is cheaper to live in an RV than pay rent!
I recently purchased a small used RV for under $5000.00

I figured if I were to live in the RV, I could save $1000.00 a month in rent. I did the math, and you could actually do this! You would pay no rent, and save $12,000 a year based on a $1000.00 a month rent costs. I just might try this shit one day and give up throwing my money away on rent. I could just live off the land and not have any living expenses at all. I just have to figure out how to heat the RV very cheap during cold weather.

I would bet the cheapest way to heat the RV would be to drive it to a warmer climate in the winter.

gas / maintence on that thing + paying for somewhere to park it will end up costing you more than renting a place

There are always living expense. You going to drink spring water? Power your laptop (ooops, that is not free either). Not sure how long you can survive eating squirrel meat and pine bark. Ammo for your gun, that isn't free either. Those clothes will wear out sooner or later, you going to kill a bear and wear bear skin?

Your idea is still valid, just don't take it to the extremely lest you fail. I did see something on TV where a couple did live in a medium RV, and they both worked 3 months in Vegas, and had enough cash left over to travel the next 9 months. Something like that seems a lot more plausible.

Gas is cheap now, below $1.60 a gallon. It wouldn't cost much in fuel at all.

Do you not look farther than a month ahead in your life? Do you really think gas is going to stay that cheap until Spring?

An RV is basically a house on wheels. You just have to keep fuel in the tank to keep going. The only problem would be keeping the RV warm in freezing temperatures. I will see if I can come up with a solution. Saving $12,000 a year on rent money sounds like a good idea to me.

Kiss that 12k a year goodbye if you want to keep it gassed up and well maintained. You'll also need a place to dump your waste, change out water, etc, and they aren't free.
