Default what would you do

My "girlfriend" and dad are on my case about putting my money where it would do some good, they dont think my hole in the water is good enough. i guess i agree. I'm the guy that has a bunch of toys but doesnt even own a house. well not a bunch, boat and bike. I dont owe on anything so that is good.
I am going to buy some land in the Virgin Islands soon and this damn boat is so easy to spend money on. I dont use it nearly as much in FL compared if i was in the VI.
Half of me wants to sell it and concentrate on building a house, but i know i am going to regret it when i look to get another one in a few years, and cant find one in this good of shape.
I dont owe on it, so maybe i can do some longterm storage, or shrink wrap it and ship it to the islands and let it sit in a friends yard until i get around to it. or just sell it and hope something comes along in the future.

LOL! Reminds me of when I was a teenager and was willing to sell or hock whatever I had to so I could hop up my car! Just don't let the parents see you throwing money in that money pit!

Ok well only you can answer that one.
Theres always gonna be another boat for sale and if you can use the cash to do some good for yourself sell it. Its just a boat and you'll find another you like just as much.


Now the problem is thats also true for the girlfreind.LOL

Seriously though if its paid for and you have steady income why not keep it and run it as is?


NO need to dump a bunch of coin in it
