Living on a boat to save money is one of those ideas that's so good and so creative that you really need to just rush into it as fast as humanly possible. Don't expect people on the internet to like it; they're actually just jealous they didn't think of it first. Your girlfriend sounds, frankly, quite lame for not realizing how amazing this opportunity is. You probably want to go ahead and break up with her immediately because she's definitely not a keeper if she can't get onboard  with this plan.The time to act is now.

Hate to doublepost, but, all these lamers talking about the dog getting caught in a fire gave me a great idea: fireproof dog-warming suit. It's a custom dog-shaped suit made of fire-proof material that also has heating circuits built-in. Boat is freezing due to -30 windchill on the lake? No problem, just plug the dog in and she'll be warm. And you'll never have to worry about the questionable Chinese heating elements burning the boat down, because the suit is made of fire-proof material. This idea is literally bulletproof. Bonus, you can license the fire-proof dog-warming-suit design to other companies and make literally hundreds of dollars. You're welcome.

You're wasting time thinking about things like financing and doggie daycare when what you really need to be doing is buying a boat - any boat, doesn't matter - with whatever money you have saved up right now. Have you given your 30 day move-out notice to your apartment? Doesn't matter, there's no time. Start moving your stuff down to the marina stat.

You guys worried about cooking need to think outside the box (the box being an apartment) and stop being afraid to dream big. Take one of these:  Turn it on its side, boom, instant combination grill and heater. Grill burgs on that bad boy while simultaneously heating your home to a toasty 13*F. And that idea only took me 45 minutes to come up with. What if I had more time? I could come up with more sweet houseboat living ideas.

There is a distinct lack of boat buyin' in this thread, and that really grinds my gears.

BaseballPCHiker posted:Second update, I've been on a month to month lease for a while now. Finally my buildings management company gave me a form that basically said resign a year lease or pay $150 extra a month to stay month to month. BaseballPCHiker posted:I bamboozled that sum bitch something good!!! Yeehaawww!!!! Funky Winkerbean more like Skunky Stinkerbean!!! Hahahahahaha I got em. While all of this is funny or whatever, how long were you on the month-to-month lease and how much extra was it per month? Anywhere I have ever lived, month-to-month leases are usually $200-300 per month extra. Also why didn't you just move in with your GF or find a cheaper place to live if this whole thing is about saving money

Does she have tiny horses to match the tiny house? Like tiny enough that she carries them in her purse like a chihuahua?

I too seethe with rage when I think about BIG BANKS and how they keep the common man down by refusing to give out 10% interest loans for floating homes. Wake up sheeple!

BaseballPCHiker posted:Because one of the main reasons to do this is to save money. If I go and buy a boat with a bunch of credit cards at 20% APR it doesnt make a bit of financial sense. As it stands right now I'm waiting for this Friday to get my credit card reimbursment from work and then I'm going to apply to places like Prosper and see what kind of terms I can get.
