Running out of money is a scary concept. It’s better to think ahead than to think it won’t happen.

Hi Nica and Carolyn,
Really enjoyed this podcast, am considering moving to a boat so was a good insight to an ‘avoided topic’ by some. Some great answers and thinking points, and the links provided were very helpful also. Nice work!
Cheers
Shaun.
Nica says
Thanks for listening and I’m so glad the links are helpful. Let us know what questions you have about moving aboard!

Perfect timing… I have been grappling with this for awhile now. You have convinced me to speed up my plans.
Thank you and keep up the great content.
Nica says
Yay! I’m so glad the podcast was helpful, Jean. We so appreciate your listening and commenting.

Head thwack right here. My husband keeps worrying about this and not wanting to get out sailing ASAP because he doesn’t know what we would do in this instance. I’ve mentioned lots of things but never the analogy you use. What would we do on land? Why is it so different? I’m totally going to use this! Thanks so much. Maybe our timeline will get moved up a couple of years. 🤞🏻

I remember thinking as I was writing and recording that this was likely to be a tip nobody would need. I’m reminded again and again that things that are obvious to us can be so helpful to others. Thanks for letting me know it was helpful – and good luck! See you out there! (Thanks for listening and commenting too. 🙂 )
