A UK couple, Lucy Argent, 41, and Paul Argent, 36, say they left the UK for Bali and no longer need to work because renting out their Cambridgeshire home through Airbnb generates enough income to cover their bills. According to reports, about two years ago the couple converted their family home in Cambridgeshire into an Airbnb listing and then relocated to Indonesia. They describe the rental income as substantially less than the costs of maintaining two separate living arrangements, saying the Airbnb revenue covers their expenses at a “fraction of the cost.” The outlets report that the couple’s move is based on using the family property as a rental asset while they live abroad. Both pieces focus on their account that the arrangement allows them to stay overseas without employment, and they link their decision to the conversion of the home into short-term accommodation and the income it produces. The reporting does not provide additional details on the couple’s earnings, booking volume, or specific financial figures.
