This is one of the retirement options my wife and I are exploring.

Looking at buying 5+ acres and putting a 40 x 70 or so pole building on it. Would be able to drive a motorcoach straight through it, and have living quarters built along one side.

When I retire, neither of us wants a home, yard, and all the issues that go with those things. We want to travel and enjoy life. I see so many retired people spending so much time and money maintaining their home and yards. Just not for me. If we go with the pole building, it will be able to be closed up at a moments notice and not require any maintance until we return, be it 1 week or 6 months.
