I figure he maybe uses it 10-15 days a year., not that I'm really counting but its almost always there. Probably about how much I'd realistically use one too until I'm fully retired. Makes financial sense to rent them until one is fully retired and going to use it a LOT. I wonder whether the novelty of living in such a confined space on holiday would wear out pretty quickly too.
