Lesson 24 Dreaming of Retirement1

Emily: Hey Jack2, I know we're still ages away, but I've got this idea I just can't get out of my head, and I want to run it by you.

Jack: Well, you know I'm always dreaming of hitting the jackpot and kissing my days of slave labor3 for the Man goodbye. Did our numbers come up last night or something?

Emily: Yeah, right! Actually, I was toying with the idea of us getting an RV. I've always imagined myself taking off cross-country in a Winnebago in my golden years.

You can tag along, too, if you promise to behave yourself! Look, a used one would cost us about a quarter as much as a condo.

Jack: An RV sounds good short-term, if the numbers work out. I'll be happy as long as we end up living near our family and friends when it's all said and done.
