Lifestyle
Before Workstyle?

We often talk about lifestyle, how we spend our time outside of work. But what if your workstyle could serve the life you really want?
That didn’t work for me. I spent 15 years asking myself: “Is this really what I’m going to do for the next 40 years?” The answer was always: No
In 1994, I was a Quality Engineer. My wife, Ann, was a teacher. One day, a colleague asked me: If you could do anything, what would it be?
I replied: I’d like to meander around in the sunshine, somewhere warm. Stress-free.
He handed me a book: “Voyaging on a Small Income” by Annie Hill.
That weekend, I devoured it, and an idea was born.
Ann came back from a school trip.
I launched into my dream: “Let’s build a yacht. Live in the sun. Ditch the 9-to-5. What do you think?”
She stared at me like I’d landed from Mars. 👽
Neither of us had ever sailed, let alone built a boat.
She said, “Grow up. Where will the money come from?”
Fair question. I had no idea. But I had the desire. And that was enough to get started.
Five years later, we launched Ruffles Spray, and in 2002, we sailed to the Mediterranean to live our dream lifestyle. You can read more about this in my book, ‘Getting Away’, available here 😀.
People always ask: How did you afford it?
The answer came in a single phone call, August 10, 1996. Ann’s best friend, Wendy said:
I think I’ve found a way for you to finance your dream. Want to know more?
What’s your dream lifestyle?
If I said I might have found a way to help you create it, would you want to hear more?
Yes? Let’s talk. It starts with just 35 minutes of your time.

P.S. If you’re a skimmer who jumps to the bottom (like me), here’s the short version:
When Wendy first told us about this idea, both Ann and I were sceptical. But 35 minutes later, our perspective changed, and so did our lives.
If it’s not for you, no pressure. But if you’re even slightly curious, click the contact us button and fill out the form. Either Ann or I will be in touch.
