Creator's Key Takeaways

I do not recommend that anyone be begin gambling to do this if you are not a gambler if you have no interest in ever gambling I don't recommend you do this

if you get to 2500 points on Prime you get an annual complimentary Cruise it's just for an interior room but it's a free Cruise

to get to Prime you have to put over the course of one year between April and April that's the earnings period you have to put $12,500 through slot machines to earn 2500 points

this is not a recommendation of what to do it's not prescriptive it's just something I have done in the past and something that I'm very clearly not recommending to take on

Creator's Tips & Advice

Only gamble with money you can afford to lose
Target 1200 points on your first cruise to unlock a complimentary sailing
Play low variance slot machines to extend your bankroll
Check the on-board casino offer list before playing to ensure desired sailings
Earn 1300 points on your second cruise to reach Prime status
