This is a joke, right?
Other than a mufti-billionaire (or a certifiably insane person), I wonder who would want to spend all that money on something that he is using only 2
weeks a year...

I don't think anyone said anything about owning something in Baja....just "how much time spent there?".
Don't believe everything you think....

I was thinking about that while driving today. Since 1993 it has been on average a little over a month a year. I'm getting to the end of month three
here in Bahia Asuncion and sometimes wonder what took me so long.

My impression has been that vast majority of people on the board either own or rent something annually. Even if their structure is movable like RV,
they keep annual rental pad. Going for this trouble for 2 weeks a year? Not very likely.
There can be all kinds of life situations of course. Somebody is going through a rough patch, medical treatment or divorce, and can't spend too much
time in Baja even though he has a place there. And there are also tourists - not by status but by their lifestyle, coming there occasionally and for
a short time, and some of them do register on the board which makes them "nomads" I guess. In this latter group you'll find a lot of people spending
there a week or two a year.

Si about 4 months per year

I get down 3-4 weeks a year. I rent a place year round but have 2 other partners in the rental which keeps it affordable.
