I am a middle aged man who lives on a sailing boat. A decade in early stage / founding without an exit that's closer to a car crash. Still trying, I don't have the temperament for consulting or corporate.

literally my goal. hopefully we can meet up on the strait of malaca at some point

Unironically, living on a boat and working on my own thing is my dream right now.
There's gotta be a ton of people in their 20s working remotely and living on a boat right now. They don't have to bust their ass like an entrepreneur either. They're just normal employees.

What is it with boats anyway?

They are RVs for the water. Pull up anchor and bring your living space with you.
Yes, it is dangerously adjacent to being the trailer trash of the sea.

Having a new deck and topiary does not make it a luxury yacht.

What.
WHAT
What?
A machine for living. I like sailing, it's just very expensive and time consuming..
