My husband and I are fortunate enough to live in a recreational area. We are both still working; however we purchased our retirement home early. We have talked about wanting to retire by a lake ever since we were married. A few years ago we happened upon our present home by accident. After discussing the pros and cons of moving further away from our jobs, we decided that having a lake home on the weekends would be worth the sacrifice of spending additional time on the road during the week. It was the best decision we ever made. The price of lake properties has steadily increased since that time. We could no longer afford to buy our home if we had waited.
