Creator's Key Takeaways
The lesson here isn't really about cruise ships, it's really about understanding yourself. Know thyself. The best lifestyle for you is the one that fits your personality.
I care less about square footage and possessions and keeping up with the Joneses and whether my life looks successful from the outside.
Changing your location won't magically solve every problem. And that goes for living on cruise ships, too. All your problems don't just disappear.
Sometimes the biggest savings comes from learning the rules of the game instead of simply paying what everybody else is paying.
