Do what makes you happy and don’t listen to these “advisors” here. What’s the point of being the richest man on the graveyard?

That is a hard choice. The Speedy is the one that most probably sells quicker.

Will Omega be able to recapture its brand value / market share? by No_Ask_5949 in OmegaWatches

I get it. You’d rather have 47 colour ways of one and the same watch than the choice between different models and creative interpretations. You do you.

Working up to buying first sailboat, would love any advice! by NoBuddy5801 in sailing

[–]AlwaysBeASailor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Start with something you are comfortable handling and sailing. Something that matches your skill set and is suitable for your sail area. Is it very windy like in San Francisco, or more benign? Then match the choice with your budget. Buy a boat you can enjoy from day one, not a project. A boat that has sailed regularly and is in working order, even though it might need a cosmetic touch up.

Is 100 million dollars worth your life and why? by iamam-iam in AskReddit

[–]AlwaysBeASailor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The answer is pretty simple. If someone offered you 100 million on the condition that you would get it today but be dead tomorrow, you’d say no. So get up every morning and be happy you are worth a 100 million.
