TRICKLE DOWN ECONOMICS ARE AWESOME!
Remember when congress was prevented from oversight on how Coronavirus Relief Funds were spent. The executive branch of government dispensed money without any congressional oversight.
This is why oversight is important.
This man applied for over 13 million dollars in Coronavirus Relief Funds, (his company payroll was $200,000 a month) and he was given a paltry 3.4 million dollars in relief funds by the government. He proceeded to spend the money on a $318,000 Lamborghini, cruised the dating sites on the World Wide Web, and sequestered himself in fancy Miami hotels.
If only I had known it was so easy to get Coronavirus Relief Funds when there is no congressional oversight.
I should have gotten a $10,000,000 loan from the government for The Positive Thinking Network - my LLC.
I could have purchased a new 2 million dollar catamaran and named it “I’m Outta Here” or perhaps “Coronavirus Relief”.
Then I would sail like a bat out of hell to any maritime nation that does not have an extradition agreement with the United States. I think I could comfortably live on my $2,000,000 catamaran with $8,000,000 in cash to spend on provisions and other things. I would build my own cell tower and have the best internet connection in the world so I could apply for more government loans. Even if I had to spend a million dollars in bribes to prevent extradition, it would be worth it.
Who knows. When the financial crisis is over, the loan might be forgiven, and I could go home.
Trickle down economics are awesome.
This plan is so crazy, it just might work.
Lack of congressional oversight is the way to go.
Awesome music video that captures the essence of what it's like to sail offshore in a catamaran around the world when conditions are less than perfect. David Abbott from Too Many Drummers sings the vocals, and he also edited the footage from our Red Sea adventures. This is the theme song from the Red Sea Chronicles.
Sailing up the Red Sea is not for the faint of heart. From the Bab al Mandeb to the Suez Canal, adventures and adversity are in abundance. If you take things too seriously, you just might get the Red Sea Blues.
If you like drum beats, and you like adventure, then have a listen to the Red Sea Chronicles Trailer.
Flying fish assault Exit Only in the middle of the night as we sail through the Arabian Gulf from the Maldives to Oman. And so begins our Red Sea adventures.
Sailing through Pirate Alley between Yemen and Somalia involves calculated risk. It may not be Russian Roulette, but it is a bit of a worry. Follow Team Maxing Out as they navigate through Pirate Alley.
Stopping in Yemen was just what the doctor ordered. We refueled, repaired our alternator, and we made friends with our gracious Yemeni hosts. We also went to Baskins Robbins as a reward for surviving Pirate Alley.
After you survive Pirate Alley, you must sail through the Gate of Sorrows (Bab Al Mandab) at the southern entrance to the Red Sea. The Gate of Sorrows lived up to its name with fifty knots of wind and a sandstorm that pummeled Exit Only for two days. Life is good.
Captain Dave and his family spent eleven years sailing around the world on their Privilege 39 catamaran, Exit Only. During the trip, the crew shot 200 hours of video with professional cameras to show people what it's like to sail on a small boat around the world.
The Red Sea Chronicles is a one hour and twenty-two minute feature film showing their adventures as Exit Only sails through Pirate Alley in the Gulf of Aden and up the Red Sea. The professional footage documents their experiences in Oman, Yemen, Eritrea, Sudan, Egypt, and the Suez Canal. It chronicles the rigors of traveling in a remote section of the world rarely visited by cruisers. Exit Only dodges Yemeni pirates, fights a gale and sand storms in the Bab al Mandeb at the southern entrance to the Red Sea. The crew explores deserted islands on the western shores of the Red Sea, and learns to check the cruising guides for land mines before venturing ashore.
The Red Sea Chronicles also has outstanding Special Features including an Instructional Video on Storm Management that tells sailors how to deal with storms at sea.
And don't forget the two Music Videos: "The Red Sea Blues", and "Captain - Save Our Souls".
The Red Sea Chronicles is a first class adventure that stokes the sailing dreams of both experienced and wannabe sailors alike.

Although I like the feel of a paper book in my hand, I love trees even more. When people purchase an eBook, they actually save trees and save money as well. Ebooks are less expensive and have no negative impact on the environment. All of Dr. Dave's books are available at Save A Tree Bookstore. Visit the bookstore today and start putting good things into your mind. It's easy to fill your mind with positive things using eBooks. No matter where you are or what you are doing, you can pull out your smart phone or tablet and start reading. You can even use electronic highlighters and make annotations in your eBooks just like paper books.
