This is what its all about in my opinion. I respect these guys who know and accept the risks, but just get out there. Its a kind of fatalistic attitude they have which touches the dreamer in the rest of us.
In the early days, there were plenty of guys and girls going cruising in something they built or fixed. There werent many wealthy sorts around.
If you want to go cruising - then plot, plan but work towards it. Its by far so much a superior lifestyle than being a part of the rat race - cliche but exactly true. Even living in a marina (with few liveaboards) and working is better than in suburbia with 5 deadlocks and the sound of sirens all night. Thats not life
Good luck with it
