        What is a residential cruise ship?

        Think of condos, but on a ship.

        People make it their permanent home, and the ship wanders the world’s oceans based (theoratically) on votes from the passenger/owners as to where to go next.

        The residents tend to be a mix of remote workers, digital nomads and retirees.

          I just did a quick search. $100k to own the cabin + $2k per person per month for one example. Seems like a good way for some to blow their money during their golden years. Sell the house and head out to sea to die.
