Seriously losing interest in IB, the work, and the lifestyle and have realized that I don’t currently have expensive or lofty dreams (ex. Don’t need 7-8 figures or to be known or influential). I don’t care for nice cars, watches, prestige or nice clothes, and don’t currently want kids.
I’m thinking of pouring my savings into a 40-50ft sailboat and 24/7 streaming my travels across the Atlantic.
I know how to sail and can get up to speed on the technical aspects of the operation / can afford to consult with people who have true expertise.
Honestly I think with the right marketing approach I could gain a decent following pretty quickly, and if I don’t, then that ok to because it’ll be a unique experience for me either way.
Need someone to talk me out of it because I can’t think of a reason not to do this.
definitely do it, you'll probably regret it if you don't.
Check out AdventureManDan on YouTube. Somewhat similar but he doesn’t stream live.
When he's on top of yo mama.
Been watching him lately, definitely some good inspo there
Nobody's going to watch your videos
People watch anything these days. You just gotta frame it right.
Plus, OP can just add a couple of adventurous girls in bathing suits on the deck. Difficult part is just the streaming internet.
Maybe true but I would be ok with that.
Where are you getting the internet to stream 24/7 in the middle of The Atlantic?
You could use satellite dishes that cost a few thousand bucks, but even then depending on where you are, you won’t have the bandwidth to live-stream a video 24/7.
Even if you’re sailing close to coast all the time, sea data is expensive. You could do a blend of stream near coast and recorded vlogs of more adventuous parts of the ocean.

Maybe start with a small travel vlog to establish yourself before deciding on buying a boat.
The boat travel is more of the dream than just the travel stream aspect but I see ur point.
With or without the stream, the boat is a key element of this idea.
Have you solo-traveled for a long time before? I would frankly start with that.
Don't know your background (nor do I have a lot of information on the subject of boats) but a solo boat out in to the ocean sounds like a lot of money sink and a lot of things to learn at the same time. It might be overwhelming to adapt and hard to back out of if you don't like it!
