- Choose Between a 12 or 24-Year Lease
Are you done with city life and want to spend the rest of your life living on a cruise ship while traveling the world, but somehow there’s still a part of you that might want to get your old life in the city back?
What if you have the option to choose a 12 or 24-year lease instead of an outright purchase of a cabin unit? Sounds interesting, right?
Storylines, a new luxury residential cruise ship that will set sail in 2023 allows you to do just that!
2. Plan Your Retirement on a Cruise Ship
If you’re thinking that your small financial nest egg won’t be enough for you to retire on a cruise ship, then you might want to reconsider that thought.
According to Tricia Tetreault, a financial analyst for Fit Small Business, retirement in a cruise ship is potentially more affordable than the typical retirement plan, particularly that of a home or assisted living community, as it can cost from $3,500 to $10,500 on average per month while residences in all inclusive cruises today start as low as $2,259 a month
Isn’t that good news for you and your active lifestyle? Planning your retirement on a cruise ship and at the same time starting new hobbies and seeing more of the world seems like the perfect dream come true!
3. Cruise Timeshare
Do you dream of setting sail on a cruise ship every time you want to get away from vacation for just maybe a few weeks, months, or years at a time?
With the newest cruise timeshare arrangement, a first in history, you can now buy the rights to a space in the ship so you can own it for the whole lease period, decorate it, live in it, alone or with your family, and then rent it out when you’re not there to supplement the maintenance fees. The sole decision is in your hands!
4. Buy or Assume Pre-owned Cruise Ship Cabin Unit
Desperately wanting to own a cabin unit inside the cleanest, greenest, and most modern cruise ships in the world today? But all new units are sold and the only option left for you is your friend’s cabin that she’s planning to let go of?
Do not fret, as you now have boundless options to choose from!
Today’s modern cruise ships give you the whole freedom to choose between buying a new cabin unit and own it forever or assume a pre-owned one. In the same way, you can rent your unit to whoever you want to offset your expenses while you’re still in the city or resell it so you can get your investment back!
5. Sell Your House, Quit Your Job, and Become a Digital Nomad
Are you a serial wanderlust with a very solid desire to travel, like it is an impulse or longing that needs to be satisfied every day of your life? Do you not mind selling your house, quitting your desk job, and working wherever possible? Then living on a cruise ship is exactly for you!
With all-inclusive cruises boasting their best line of technology, including ultra-reliable and high-speed Internet connection, you can be a satisfied and accomplished digital nomad, making money wherever and whenever you want while relishing an unforgettable once-in-a lifetime adventure you truly deserved.
