Would You Do What This Guy Does To Live The Life He Wants?

Greg's picture

Do you want to be Dave Dixon? At sixty, he's reached the goals he set for himself in 2000:

  • he lives on the water in ritzy Newport Beach, CA;
  • he works plus or minus when he wants;
  • he plays golf or tennis nearly every day.

The catch: he lives on a forty year old boat that needs constant repair, has to be anchored in the Pacific at least 10 days a month, and requires a dinghy trip to get to shore. He has no health insurance.

The Los Angeles Times has the story.

Dixon sounds like a very upbeat guy. Could you adopt his minimalist approach and maintain that positive attitude?

I applaud!

The things we will do to ourselves in the name of keeping our benefits intact!

I would like to live in an old house I love. And when I get ill, I'll die, simple as that. I think this brief description is like Jason having caught the golden apple.
