At about 30 I found out about ability to rent a sail boat and have a fantastic week-long vacation with friends for a price of a decent 4* hotel. It was true in case someone has a recreational sailing license instead of hiring a skipper. Then I decided to make a living from that, being that "skipper for hire" for other people. It was fun for a while, but routine quickly killed most of the joy. Also, money was far south from what I used to make. So I got back to IT and kept sailing as a hobby since. I don't regret a single moment of it, though.
