Creator's Key Takeaways
I sold everything. I quit my job. I left the marriage that wasn't working for me. And I got rid of 99% of my possessions so I could live full-time on cruise ships.
I don't gamble. I play a certain amount of money. I spend it on my entertainment. Once I've spent the amount for my entertainment, then I am done.
I am including the price of that cruise. I am including how much I spent in the casino for that cruise because I played specifically for that cruise.

About our Bacon Score methodologyYouTube Video Description↓
I had a real decision to make involving a free cruise, casino offers, and guaranteed costs. On paper, one option looked exciting. Another option looked boring. Only one option actually protected my budget. This video explains how I think through cruise decisions, why I don’t chase upside, and the one line I won’t cross — even when something looks “free.” If you’re trying to travel more, cruise smarter, or avoid costly mistakes, this mindset matters more than any deal. Let me know in the comments what you would have done. 🌅 Welcome to Poverty to Paradise — where we’re not chasing more, we’re chasing meaning.
