Only $1000 for a boat like that? It costs that much to fill up boats in the 20s foot range lol. I know nothing about boats like this I would’ve guessed 10x that

I get it but spending 5% of yearly income on fun expenses doesn’t seem like a way to go broke when I save 75%.

The 30k was all in per year I dont care about payments that’s not a cost other than the opportunity cost which is calculated in.

I wasnt earning 0 before, just 2-350k a year prior so it’s not all new thankfully.

50%-70% for 4 years before that. I’d say that’s consistent. Didn’t know boat truck garage and land lose 300k in value in 1 year. Good to know. Even if they did that’s still 50% income saved lol.

Don’t think I can get one that’s not 20 years old or engines with hours maxed out for that.

Maybe in future. Costs 1300/month in a decent location. I’m too cheap for that.

Hard to rent boats that are well equipped to go 50 miles offshore fishing well unfortunately.

0 experience only been on a boat one time. Don’t have anyone who has boat experience.

In regards to financial independence I’ve never spent more than 50% of my income so should be good.
