I decided not to give up my plan of buying and living on a sailboat, and I also keep my Splinterlands card collection (2021.11.07)

(Edited)

Some people are trying/tried to dissuade me from this plan, but I received so much more supporting comments, as well as the awesome amount of upvotes on my posts and comments recently, so I decided to keep saving for the sailboat, and I also decided to keep my Splinterlands card collection.

As @robotamer wrote in this comment,

If this is your dream don't let people talk you out of it.

And in this comment,

I met a man from Russia once, maybe 5 years ago on a small sailboat in the Caribbean. He was retired and his pension was $100.
He had sailed from Russia, and his plan was to do the whole world.
He didn't even have a dinghy, and often had to swim to shore.
But I never met a person more proud and happy then him in my life.

So I stick to my plan, and I will not let people talk me out of it. Especially after taking a look at my Hive income recently on hivestats.io.

Thanks to the huge support from the Hive community, I earned $175.59 USD in the previous 30 days, and there is a $41.73 USD pending payout for the next 7 days.

Today I transferred 3.414 HBD to savings, and I currently have 109.584 HBD in savings.

I decided to keep my Splinterlands cards collection too. By the way, today I received a Gargoya Lion card as the daily quest reward.

This card is currently worth $0.17 USD, and now I have four of these cards.

All the best. Greetings from Hungary.

I don't see any reason in not trying for your goals. Of course it may not work out but you can always write about what went wrong on HIVE. Just make sure to have an emergency fund ready so you don't have to liquidate stuff in a hurry.

I agree. You don't want to be forced to liquidate what is helping you earn. In fact, you may want to plan to fail so that you know what can go wrong and can do better the next time around.

If I buy a sailboat, and move to live in it, then there will be no way to move back to my previous rent. And I do not even want to. It is too expensive, but other rents are even more expensive. I will read, ask and plan everything to avoid failure.

That is a good way to look at things but you should always have some extra emergency funds just incase. After all there seems to be a lot of regulations and stuff you need to get out of the way as well

Excellent decision dear friend @xplosive, congratulations
When I saw this post I remembered you.

I cheched his post. His boat house is expensive, but I asked him for some recommendations and tips in the comment section for my buying and living on a small sailboat plan. Maybe he will write a few things.

I also would not recommend a sailboat, but if it is what you want to do, you should try it.

I just/only want to live a proper life. To avoid having to pay these high rents and the also high regular monthly bills. I will continue to speak with people about this. Maybe there is indeed a better solution.

There are many YouTube videos concerning living on a small sailboat. They sail some of those all over, but I am way to scared to try that!

I currently do not have any experience about sailboats, but I would rather fight my way across the sea/ocean with a small sailboat to a warmer place, and live on the boat than continue to live in financial discrimination in this (both literally and figuratively) cold country. I am very desperate to get out of my current situation.

I do under stand the hate of the cold. I am working on moving south for that very reason. The weather here in the north is miserable over half of the year. Down south I can save a lot on heating!
