Financial Planning

Don’t Waste Your Million

Financial Planning Investing for Superyacht Crew

Working on a yacht gives you a remarkable opportunity to make yourself financially independent—if you do some sensible financial planning. Sadly, most superyacht crew don’t grasp this opportunity.

Here is the reality.

You’re between 25 and 45 years old, and you’ve been in yachting for a while. You’re earning around $50,000-100,000 per year, depending on your position. (Maybe even $250,000.) Your daily living expenses are zero: water, electricity, WiFi, etc. Your accommodation, work clothes and food are all taken care of. You don’t have a daily commute to work. And even better, maybe you don’t even have to pay income tax.

So after 10-15 years in the superyacht industry, you’ll have earned anywhere between $500,000 and $1,000,000, taking pay rises into account. (Maybe even more!) And you won’t really have had to spend a penny.

BUT the majority of yacht crew leave yachting with nothing. They manage to spend their entire million.

So their golden opportunity to build a financial foundation for their ideal, independent life is GONE.

We’ve made it our life’s work to help you keep your million (or maybe even more). This is the bedrock that will enable you to leave yachting on your terms and step into your dream life. So you can live the rest of your life doing what you love.

“Money is boring. It’s what you do with it that is exciting. And what is more exciting than the freedom to pursue your dreams?”

But you’ll need a plan.

In fact, you’ll need two:

  1. a life plan (where you want to go in life)
  2. a financial plan that is in service of your life plan (how you will pay for it)

We’re experts in helping superyacht crew make financial plans that work. (Our secret sauce: we tie it to your life plan and we offer extensive mentoring and support all the way to the finish line.)
