At our summer place we used to have a knotty pine sign that read:
A boat
is a hole in the water
Surrounded by wood
Into which one pours money.

Turn your air conditioner to 65 degrees, Get a big fan and put in front of your shower, turn on the cold water with the door open and the fan blowing into the shower. Wearing your best boating attire step inside the shower and get under the spraying water and start tearing up $100 dollar bills into tiny shreds that flow down the drain. If you find you enjoy that you will love owning a sail boat.
