    What do you do in a boat???

    A boat like this one? You fuckin’ live in it instead of a house (and at a much lower cost).

    I mean, not this exact one from the article because it was a rental, but in general a lot of yachts in this ~40’ range are owned by couples and used for the nautical equivalent of #vanlife.

      Yeah I sold real estate to a couple who was living out of a boat and traveling the world. He was a retired oil engineer, and it made lots of money and could afford to stay around and do nothing his whole life. That’s the point. It’s a position of comfort and personal decision. Just like van life Lmfaoo: rich kids pretending to be vagrant hippies. I spent a lot of time with them as a real vagrant hippie.
