It is worth adding for the sake of clarity that light has no perspective or frame of reference because photons are non-inertial.
And for that reason they don't experience distance either. So the term 'sun-kissed' isn't actually that far off...from the photon's perspective the sun IS giving you a kiss.
I should make a kickstarter, but I am already in my jammies.
But granted, all people I know would be dead and some I could find in the history books maybe..
Where you would also be, at that stage.
If you do it in a country that doesn't allow you to be declared legally dead when you are out of contact for a couple centuries, and if the institutions involved don't collapse, and if the interest on the account outpaces inflation, sure.
What percentage of the banks that were around 222 years ago have not failed?
Maintaining 1g of acceleration for a useful amount of time would require an extraordinary amount of propellant.
All of those estimates are tongue-in-cheek and are accurate if your energy expenditure is actually unlimited.
Not really that long.
Spend twice as long on boats though (32 years) and you can do about 10,000 light years.
