I think he could have bought a nice used camper for about 1/2 that price.
If someone wanted a more permanent, safer, low cost solution, shipping container houses are the answer.

If a person can cut, weld, and do some carpentry, these can be very easy.

They are narrower than the houses on trailers and it's hard to get vertical space out of them.

I had some cool plans drawn up to do something like this on my empty lot where my house used to be pre-Katrina. It would've been elevated and multistory, and I could've done most of the work for cheap, minus the crane work needed to lift them in place. I also had the building codes figured out, but the city code people and planning commission would've fought me the whole way. The end result would've been about 1300 sq. feet.
