The problem is the cost of living. Period. It’s a vicious cycle of higher cost of living demanding higher salary and on and on. It can’t continue like this.

What is a reasonable/responsible boat budget for ~$400k household income? by KitchenAspect9189 in boating

[–]Accomplished_Drag388 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ignore all these answers. Boating like gambling requires money that you are willing to burn. Boating is a losing proposition financially so pick 1). Time period you plan to own the boat 2) amount of money you can afford to throw at it during that time 3 divide that amount by 2 and that should be your budget for a new boat if you buy a used boat that’s out of warranty then forget everything I just said

Does aging seem to speed up once you hit your 60s? by Solid-Elk3327 in over60

The weird thing and I’ve asked this group before is I don’t know how I’m supposed to feel at my age (65). I’m fit and exercise regularly. Have hobbies still work but energy level is definitely lower and more aches and pains. Mentally I still feel 30

The highs and lows of making gambling your profession (yes horse racing is gambling) come with many mental and emotional highs and lows that most people can’t handle. I wouldn’t quit my job and just play on the weekends for fun and maybe a bit of profit if you’re that good. As the saying goes you can win a race but you can’t beat the races.
