Cruises aren’t particularly cheap, they’re generally $100-300/night, per person, which is similar to a hotel. If you want a nicer room,that’d extra. They’re pretty affordable as vacations go, but hardly close to a permanent living arrangement.
I live in rural Wisconsin and the retirement homes around here cost more than that for independent living where residents get 1 meal a day free, an emergency pendant and a weekly maid coming through to clean. Living on a cruise ship can easily provide more accomodations than that for less cost
Yeah we destroy the planet, but it’s cheaper than not to, and we’re old anyway

There cruise lines that offer 3 year cruises for just $30k a year… https://www.cnn.com/travel/article/3-year-cruise-mv-gemini/
That $2.5k/mo is actually ridiculously good when you consider it includes everything.
That’s… actually an incredibly good deal!
Cheaper than a retirement home, and with doctors on board.
It’s really not.
100 bucks a night is only 3k a month, so yeah it is

by like half to a fourth for a good retirement home
like 60k a year in OR
I daresay permanent residents aren’t paying that much.
