'I live on a boat, this is how much money I save in rent'
I moved into a one-bedroom flat which cost $1,100 per month to rent and I was paying around $200 in bills. Luckily, in Canada there are laws regulating how much landlords can increase their tenant's rent, so my payments stayed the same for five years. However, I believe a similar flat in the area would cost at least $1,800 toI met Carly in August 2020. We hit it off instantly.
Within a month of making the decision everything was done. We only had a few weeks to sell everything, clear the apartment and move onto the boat. We had purchased a 38ft Morgan 382 which had all the systems and comforts we needed. Maintenance is a famous question when it comes to boats. The perception is boats are an expensive extravagance, but I don't believe that's the case if you live on one.
Buying a house might be in the plans for the future, but right now, we don't like the idea of being tied up to something for 25 to 30 years. We know too many people stuck in jobs or situations they don't like, but who can't get out of their situation because they have massive mortgage payments.
