The real pleasure of
spending time on a yacht is not in owning it but in the people you share it
with.
Owning a luxury yacht has become a sort of benchmark in the
ultra rich world just to announce that one has “arrived”.
Spending hundreds of millions of dollars to buy a very chic,
fast and luxurious piece of aqua real estate seems to be a very successful ego
satisfying spend. No doubt at all that it does get talked about and written
about, but so do things like Driving under Influence felonies and drunken
brawls.
For some it may be necessary to feel a part of the “elite”
crowd by just claiming ownership of a 300 foot private luxury boat.
But is the buying of
an ultra luxurious yacht truly an intelligent way to spend your money? How many
weeks in a year would you actually spend on it, unlike an expensive car, which
you would probably use a lot if you love it?
Secondly, do you really want to go to the same boat again
and again without experiencing the wide variety our world has to offer?
Wouldn’t it get monotonous after a while? For a weeks pleasure you would spend
a fortune on the upkeep and staff of the yacht and finally resort to leasing it
out to other celebrities over the year to make it pay for itself.
Do remember that it is one of the highest depreciating
assets that you could spend your money on. Not exactly smart is it?
The Meta Luxury users of a yacht would just let the ego of
the “owners” be satisfied and spend their money on leasing out a new yacht
every six months, all in different parts of the world and enjoy a new location,
a new experience, different luxury and all types of machines that are available
for a fraction of the price. A new holiday, anticipation and excitement of
seeing a new boat every time, like experiencing all the luxury hotels of the
world without being restricted to just the one that you own.
A fact you might want to consider is that you could lease out any of the yachts shown here for a month every year for the next 20 years and still spend less than buying one and getting bored of it in a year or two.
You could choose from the very best of the best like the meta luxury options shown below. They are in no particular order and I will give details about each of them in further posts.
