My wife and I work full time jobs, traveled over 5,500 miles last year in motorhome. Still can't figure out how we managed that. Full timers 1 1/2 years. No stick and brick for us.

I am a travel nurse. I love my trailer. It is home. I have a 31 ft pull behind with 2 slide outs. I travel alone. It has been a real challenge here in Arizona. So darn hot. Poor ac can't keep up. Had to buy a portable ac for the bedroom. That has helped. I am only one more week here and am looking forward to cold weather. I am a bit backwards I guess. Most people leave the colder states in winter, I embrace them. Just takes extra planning and prep. No biggy.

We've lived fulltime in our 5th wheel for over a year now. Couldn't find a buyer for our house, but at least it's rented. We live 6 months at one place, and 6 months at another place (both here in the Albuquerque area) and go to our jobs everyday. Hoping to only have to work for another few years before we can go somewhere else. Our story started a couple of years ago and it documented on our blog (link in signature). We love living in our RV (of course, we call it our house now).

As little as most Workamping positions in RV parks pay, we must be doing something right in this full timers lifestyle. Starting our 12th year come November.

Currently beginning final steps to RVing full time and looking into Workamper as a way to make it a success.

We are not full time, only live in the motorhome 7 months or so per year (reverse snowbirds). I am retired but DW is a consultant to medical insurance companies. In our travels, in addition to travel nurses, we have met professional clowns, a stunt pilot, professional fishermen, construction workers, cell phone tower builders, insurance adjusters, roofers, mobile rv techs, a large animal veterinarian, IT and computer network consultants, high rise glass installers, food service workers, retail clerks, a couple of butchers, a doctor (resident), a couple of airplane engineers, theme park employees, employees working for temporary agencies full time, a CPA, and other professions I am sure I have forgotten. If you can make a living from a stick and brick you can make a living from a full time rv. The rv is generally used to travel to where the work is. One of the most interesting things for me is learning about what others do to support themselves.
