Don't listen to them

I wouldn't listen to any of these guys. You can totally do it. Check out these examples:

On top of those two, and there are many more, My grandfather at 24 sailed around the world in 1939 when the south pacific was still largley unknown by todays standards. Then he joined the navy and fought a war for 5 years, then came home and went to college and raised a family.......and his most rewarding experiance was the sail around the world. Do it well you're young and can enjoy it.......not in your 50's when you have a wife that won't go and kids who need tuition.
