SinbadThePorter Posted August 6, 2018 #4 Share Posted August 6, 2018 That is some cruise. That's some price. $120,000 pp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSWP Posted August 6, 2018 #5 Share Posted August 6, 2018 That's some price. $120,000 pp. How do those people afford it? But then some Aussie couples spend that annually on ships like Sea Princess doing the worldies. Balcony cabin or mini suite, shorex, drinks, easy get to $120,000.:eek: There are more than a few currently on Sea Princess or have done 3 or more Worldies.:loudcry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MMDown Under Posted August 6, 2018 #6 Share Posted August 6, 2018 That's some price. $120,000 pp. Yes and the top three level suites up to $343,000 pp are sold out! Guess it would be double that for a single! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cruise is only the price of a prestige car. Do a google for the price of a new Bentley for example.:eek::eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare MMDown Under Posted August 7, 2018 #18 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Oh, would never really do that!Cheers, Cheryl Why not? I did OK, without inheriting anything. The worst child/parent relationships I have come across are those where the children were spoiled by their parens and didn't learn to take personal responsibility. My gift to my children was unconditional love, time and love of travel. It was my children who told me it is time I learnt to take taxis. Some habits are hard to break - I took the bus from my accommodation to my last cruise in Singapore. Lately, I have learnt to fly long haul in business class.

Rare MicCanberra Posted August 7, 2018 #20 Share Posted August 7, 2018 No inheritance as yet and probably no time soon. But if (big if) there is any, it will most likely be passed down to my son straight away as I have really no need for it and he could use it now.

Some habits are hard to break - I took the bus from my accommodation to my last cruise in Singapore. Lately, I have learnt to fly long haul in business class. Come to think of it, I managed to buy and own my first home with $20 savings each week in my first job as a teenager. ( A long time ago). No inheritance for me and didn’t expect it. Upgraded our home and now own that as well. Unconditional love is a term that has been used in my extended family many times over the years. I have 4 brothers and a sister. 4 children and 4 grandchildren. We all get along famously due to unconditional love. Like me, my kids don’t expect anything, however I really want to help if I can. That said I don’t want to deprive them of the sense of achievement 😜 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GUT2407 Posted August 7, 2018 #22 Share Posted August 7, 2018 I’ve always told my kids, I’d give them the best education I could, after that they’d be on their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare MicCanberra Posted August 7, 2018 #24 Share Posted August 7, 2018 I will help my son and his family whenever and wherever possible but not to the detriment of my own life and cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many do it when they have spent their retirement holiday funds.:halo::') My father believes if I am going to spend all his cash on cruising and holidays. Then he's going to start spending it now and taking us with him (yes I pay my part). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
