No but I knows someone who lives in their car by choice. and they.re not a bum or homeless. They work (Mainly travel work) they say owning a house is pointless.
I don't get it but they genuinely seem to enjoy it and to have a problem with it.

Al Gore was raised in a fancy hotel room in DC by a nanny when his father was a senator.

People have always lived in hotels.

Royal Tenenbaum did, but he and his little Indian* friend got kicked out.

Watched it again recently, and I was surprised that I felt it still holds up well.
Haven’t been able to get into any Wes Anderson movies since then.

I worked with a guy who did this for seven years. He started as a contract employee so he didn't want to get an apartment when the job could end any moment. So he did weekly rate at a Candlewood Suites in a nice suburban part of the city. It was a suite so it was a bigger room with a kitchenette and seating lounge.
The job kept going so he just stayed there... for seven years. He said with points rolled in and other discounts it worked out to $1,700 month. That includes cable, wifi, utilities and one maid cleaning a week. He figured that wasn't that much more than an apartment once fees, utilities and all of the furniture and crap you had to buy were factored in. I mean he paid a little more for a smaller space but he had the freedom to pack his bag and walk out the door whenever he wanted. I think that's a big part of the appeal - you're not trapped the way you are with a house or a lease.

I know a guy that was raised in a fancy hotel in NYC and now as an adult lives in one in Chicago.
Old money.
It's outrageously expensive if it's not some shithole. Even moderate hotels would be wildly expensive unless they gave you some sort of long term stay rate.

if you get use to it I guess, I've stayed in some of the nicest hotels there are, in a lot of different countries, that shite gets old and confining to me

The irony of Quality Inns is, you’re staying there only because you have no other Choice.

I'd get sick of it the same way I'd get sick of a big apartment building...too many fricking people around.

yep, and I realize you can go out, but I don't care how many stars the restaurant and the chef is, you get to know the menu real fast and get sick of that too

$314 a week? You misspelled Motel or roach motel.
Most hotels I stay in that doesn’t cover a night.

A friend of mine did when he was growing up, but his family owned the hotel.

If money were no object I might do it at a five star hotel in Aspen or Santa Fe.
My client lived here while working on a redevelopment of the resort. I’ll take it.
And this one before that.
