Hello Everyone

Terry and Jo · RV-Dreams Family Member

Welcome to the RV Dreams forums, Nancy. This is a site with a lot of knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful folks. Sorry to hear about all your difficulties with your business and all, and we are hopeful that things improve for you soon.

Feel free to ask questions and never have the thought that a question might be a dumb one. The only dumb questions are the ones that are NOT asked and thus receive no answer.

In reference to another of your posts, look at the Open Range H396RGR as a toy hauler fifth wheel. That one is nice in that it even has a separate bathroom for the garage area. I'm not sure whether that bathroom has a shower, but it does look like it has a sink and commode.

Enjoy the research and planning and the RV lifestyle.

You will find this a comfortable place to learn and share.An amazing amount of info is here. We full-time but are unable to hit the road just yet, because the sale of our business fell through and selling it in this economy will be very,very difficult.We may just walk away and sell the equipment,I don't know. What I do know is that in 40+ years of self-employment,we have had failure as well as prosperity.The failure is painful,but can be eased greatly by planning for the future. We've been married for 43 yrs and worked together every day,as well. If your personal relationship is good,you'll be fine.Keep moving forward.That is essential!You will encounter self-reliant and resourceful people here. Welcome.

Thank you for your warm welcomes and encouraging words!

Sounds like you know exactly what we're going through Richard and Ginny. I will keep you in my prayers as you figure out what to do.

There is a great deal of info, and it will take me a little bit to get through it all I'm sure, but I'm enjoying myself just the same.

Thanks again!

Welcome Nancy,

We closed our franchise restaurant business last summer that we had operated for six years. As has been mentioned, it's hard to sell a business in this economy, especially one that was losing money as ours was. We lost all that we had invested and went through all of our savings to try and keep it afloat. We were able to hang onto our house and avoid bandruptcy, so we are very thankful. Luckily I have my military retirement and healthcare as we start over.

Good luck to you as you enter into a new season of your life. Keeping things in perspective will help you as you move forward. Material things are just that, things, and are less important than the relationships that you have.

God bless,

Frank
