Comments on: Decisions, decisions http://planettrekker.info/cruise/2007/12/28/decisions-decisions/ My experiences as a cashier in a cruise ship casino...

After a summer studying in France I was close to my time to return home. Worried about having enough money, and not wanting to ask my parents for more, I opted not to make the trip. Since then, floods have destroyed some of the priceless treasures there, and I never got to see them. Similarly, if I had only borrowed $1000 twenty-five years ago I could have taken myself and two children to England where relatives were living. Being unsure of my financial future, I took the safe course and deprived myself and my children of a wonderful experience. I realized years later that there were many ways to earn money for important things and many ways to waste money on inconsequential things. I have regretted those early decisions many times over the years. If health holds out, I hope to finally make those trips over the next two years. Follow your dreams, choose the course that will feed your soul. You'll never regret it! Greg,

Get off in Sydney or Auckland. There are many sea days on the world cruise and you may not always be able to get off at the ports. As it would cost you to do it, I would advise not going further into debt. Those ports and countries will still be there when you are back on your feet. Roll the dice. For what it is worth.
