When you make stupid choices.....

Are some guys really arguing that planning, training and preparedness are nothing but simple hurdles to be cast aside when going after their dreams? LOL!!

Apparently.

Not me, I'm just not going full nerdy all the time

Beyond idiocy, inexperienced people who have an overinflated sense of competency.

Training, researching and preparedness are not what I consider full nerdy. Any normal person who has an interest in something tries to learn something about their interest to gain some level of competency. No matter the interest. I wouldn't carry a gun if I didn't know which end was dangerous. I wouldn't get on stage in front of people with a guitar in my hand if I didn't have some idea of how to play it. I sure wouldn't sell everything I own so that I can attempt to sail around the world without knowing anything about boats or navigation.

Nah, not nerdy, just plain old common sense.

I cannot believe someone would donate money to a timeshare salesman. This country is full of idiots. Stop and let me off the train.

There was nothing in the article about their plans, other than they wanted to sail around the world. No one said they were heading straight out into the Atlantic on their way to Africa. Maybe they were going to sail done they coast to gain experience bumming around the Keys or all the way around the Gulf Coast. Everybody making assumptions and piling on with only a short news story with no real info.

They way some of you are acting, there would have never been any Europeans in North America, or early mountain men explorers expanding the US beyond the east coast.

They may be huge idiots and trying to earn double Darwin Awards, but there is not enough info to determine that.

Judging by the story I read.. They are broke and have a cell phone, with 90 bucks to their name.. Gee it doesn't sound like a 3 hour cruise now does it..

Talk about assumptions? re read the story....

Actually, 90 bucks and a cell phone sounds exactly like a 3 hour cruise
