Many people dream of owning big mansions with more bathrooms than you can count. But there is a group of free-spirited people who dream of spending their good days on the road. It is a modern nomadic lifestyle that many have credited with raising their quality of life without the confines of a traditional house. The Washington Post reports that as many as one million Americans live full-time in RVs. Also, a study by the journal Intelligence suggests a correlation between intellect and compulsion to move. So if you have felt that undying urge to buy a motorhome, chances are you are among the smartest heads in the room.
Motorhomes come in many shapes and sizes, from small pop-up trailers to vans conversions, campervans, and over-the-top coach-built motorhomes. It all depends on your needs and how deep your pockets run. Just like there are plenty of celebrity gearheads, some are into owning and moving around in luxurious recreation vehicles. As is common with people in the limelight, it is a case of going big or going home. Here are ridiculously expensive RVs owned by celebrities.
