oh! neat! some friends of mine live in a van (it's a big van but not quite an RV), it's a pretty sweet deal.
I think you have a good thing going on for yourself. if you can save that kind of money it definitely changes how you interact with the world. I only had 1/10th of what you have in investments and it definitely made me bolder in the world.
I wasn't being hyperbolic about insurance carriers though, and I'm sure you already know about this but I'd really caution you (and others) on this. As a small (10 person) company, we had a health insurance policy that was dropped without cause by the carrier. They told us to our face, "sue us". They know we won't, because what would it accomplish? We'd lose (burn) money, they have money to burn, it makes no sense.
When you're small (an individual or a small company), they can get away with doing that to you. So, you're making payments on a policy, but I'd wager that when you need it, is when you'll be getting a letter in the mail saying "after we received your letter telling us to terminate your policy, we did"...
