This couple ditched making more than $200K working at hedge funds to go sail the high seas.
If you dream of ditching the 9-to-5, the miserable commute and the annoying office, and setting sail on the open seas, Grace Heaton has a simple message for you.
The couple met in college and have been together ever since. Bill was the sailor. “I grew up sailing,” he says. “My grandfather taught me at a young age.” He had dreamed for many years of sailing around the world. Anyone who thinks that living on a boat is all lazy cocktails and sunsets is in for a rude awakening, they say. It’s hard work. The couple now have a YouTube channel GOOG, -0.61% GOOGL, -0.61% in which they keep a video diary of their travels, and Bill notes that one of the common remarks among viewers is: ‘Wow, you guys are working hard.’
“The highs are really high, and the lows are really low,” says Bill. Some of the experiences “are sublime,” he says. “You’re sailing through beautiful places or cruising the ocean.” They recently spent time in the Bahamas, spear fishing with other cruisers and holding bonfires on the beach most nights.
