My dream is to have a home someday at TV! It will be a few years until we are 55+, but TV already seems like exactly what we want/need! Am I crazy? Will we be welcomed as two 55 year olds when the time comes? We are envisioning spending spring and fall in FL and winter and summer in the western state we reside now...with plans to spend more time in FL as the years pass. We have lived in FL before and loved it! Thoughts? Am I crazy? [emoji12]

My wife and I are moving into our TV home yet this afternoon. We went to Cancun earlier this year with two of our couple-best friends. We are in our late 60s and all four of them are in their late 40s. They are the ages of our kids but that has made no difference to them or to us.

In fact, one of the couples told us that if we run into a "deal" here to let him know as he'll buy now so that they and their friends have a place to go to during the cold Nebraska winters. And they'll then have their retirement home well in advance.

In other words, my suggestion is that you move forward!! And welcome in advance.
