Dont forget that while Al was miserable all the time, he did have a good family that always had each others backs when the Bundy name was sullied. He always had plenty of free time and money to spend at the nudie bar. And enough cash to take a vacation from time to time.

I feel like everyone is not remembering just how miserable their lives were. Yeah he was in a house with a family, but their trips were always either a trick or a horrible mistake, like the radioactive lake. Or the cursed town.

The main running gag of the Bundie's was that they couldn't afford to eat and Al's car was barely living. They weren't enviable, they were cousin Eddie in the suburbs.
