My response depends on the situation.

If daddy bought the boat, its a big yawner.

Why would that make any difference at all? Its clear from the site
they are conscientious about their finances. They appear to be not
afraid of hard work.

If they actually worked and saved and bought almost all of the boat, I
might be impressed (emphasize MIGHT).

Do they really think they're trying to impress *you*?

Now, I have seen enough of this silly Twain quote. In twenty years,
you will regret the things you did not do even if you do go cruising.
If you go cruising, it keeps you from doing other things.

In the months leading up to our year long cruise I was often asked if
it was scary to give up a good job and face all the uncertainties. I
concluded that it was scarier to contemplate working until a "proper"
retirement age, and then realizing it was too late. The scary part
looking back at missed opportunities.
