This is a fantastic idea (assuming it really is legal). Great way to buy an RV for retirement and have it be tax deductible.

How to create extra room to work from home? An Airstream RV office

As many of us have tried to get creative to find new ways to make working at home palatable for us during a pandemic, you've got to love Jeremiah Owyang's solution.

The independent tech analyst needed space to call his own, and found a great alternative to sky-high Silicon Valley rentals.

He bought a small 22-foot Airstream RV on a 30-year loan, parked it in his back yard, and souped it up for video calls. The analyst surveyed the local real estate market, and found that rentals were charging at least $2,000 monthly. Instead, he got a 30-year-loan at $370 monthly for a $50,000 Airstream "Sport" trailer.

"I own it. I can claim it as a business deduction and re-sell it at some point in the future," says Owyang.
