🚢 The REAL Cost to LIVE Full-Time on Cruise Ships

Ever wonder if it’s really possible to live full-time on a cruise ship? 🚢 In this video, I’m breaking down my August 2025 expenses to show you the real cost of cruise life—and why it’s actually cheaper than paying rent back on land. From cabins and gratuities to internet and travel days, I’ll cover every detail so you can see exactly how much it costs (and doesn’t cost!) to call a cruise ship home. 💡 Here’s the secret: I’m not a millionaire. I do this for less than $2,500 a month—and my YouTube channel covers it. The best part? If you’ve ever dreamed of traveling more or even retiring at sea, this lifestyle is possible for you too. ► YouTube Course: https://groundedlife.thinkific.com/courses/youtube-after-40?ref=34db57 ----------------------------------------- ► (My 1st video) How I Cruise on Casino Deals - https://youtu.be/P7xL4TmrkFI ► How to Live On Cruise Ships without Casino Deals - https://youtu.be/cHiZcymJDDQ ► How Much It Cost Me to Live on Cruise Ships for 1 Year - https://youtu.be/ugrfsHXciD8 ► My Story - Why I QUIT the AMERICAN DREAM and found real FREEDOM - https://youtube.com/live/L8e3aeNx6xo ► How to Get Free Cruises on Royal Caribbean - https://youtu.be/TFY9wE7BP04 ► Understanding Cruise Casinos & Perks - https://youtu.be/9lhua349VeU ► IHG / How I Got 24 Free Nights in Vietnam - https://youtu.be/Qrg1V9ruJew Links to YouTubeAfter40 Friends' channels: ► Dave - www.youtube.com/@SmartTechForAnyAge ► Brenda - www.youtube.com/@downsizetoupsize ► Bill - www.youtube.com/@CrashCourseTravel ► Kim - www.youtube.com/@Kimafter50 ► Amy - www.youtube.com/@IfYouSeekAmyK ► Denicia - www.youtube.com/@SheRoamzFree ► Kimberly - www.youtube.com/@AlmostRetiredAbroad ► Stacey - www.youtube.com/@staceyssimplemeals ----------------------------------------- 🚢 If you are over 40 and interested in learning how to create a successful YouTube channel or Jumpstart your retirement travels, these are the courses that I took (Affiliate Links): ► YouTube Course: https://groundedlife.thinkific.com/courses/youtube-after-40?ref=34db57 ► Retirement Travel Jumpstart Course: https://groundedlife.thinkific.com/courses/retirement-travel-jumpstart?ref=34db57 ► Bundle: https://groundedlife.thinkific.com/bundles/retirement-travel-jumpstart-youtube-after-40?ref=34db57 ----------------------------------------- Hi!
