The answer really comes down to your personal lifestyle while living in the S&B and then when you full time. There is a long list of items on my budget that would be gone if I full timed (house insurance and maint, property taxes, gas/electric/H2O/sewer, cable/internet, etc) that would significantly offset the increase in cost from part time to full time especially assuming a reasonable travel and campsite cost. The key is while you are part timing/longer term but not full time camping, you have the S&B and a moderate camping costs. Delete all the S&B cost and extrapolate out the camping costs and you have the answer.
