Why does anyone who owns something that is an expense 365 days a year
but only used personally perhaps 30 days a year
rent out those unused days/weeks?

Vacation homes operate on the same principal. Buy it. Use it. Rent it out when you aren't using it.

The income covers the expense. Anything over that (if any) is a profit.
The decision on what to do with the additional income (if any) is a personal one.

It's probably all our fault — we started making wisecracks and smart-aleck remarks.
This is why we can't have nice things.
