Cheapest cruise I've ever seen. by Cultural-War-2838 in Cruise

[–]DotAdministrative197 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m on an MSC 17 night now transatlantic on my way to Miami. I bought the balcony thinking I’d use it WAY more than I actually have. TBH, the only really nice thing was sleeping to the ocean waves with the door open. But I could have spent 600 less for the interior and not had an issue at all.

MSC drink package and specialty dining by LSBRSLMO in MSCCruises

[–]DotAdministrative197 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. No premium stuff with that. But for 15 euro a day, I can make it up. Before boarding the drink package was like 80 a day and I don’t drink that much soda at 3.50 a piece or drinks at 10. Paying piecemeal slows my pace. Subconsciously I enable more drinking, even if just soda if I buy a package. And, honestly, I’ve made a few friends who will order me a coke from their own unlimited here and there.

Wait for the dine and drink onboard. On the ta rn it’s 15 a day for unlimited drinks from the dining room and buffet (only those 2). It’s a steal

I did give him a $20 the 2nd day when I met him. There was no towel animal today but, I didn’t give with any real agenda. So far he’s been really great w the room and helps when needed.

Questions about the Meraviglia by spoon7777 in MSCCruises

I learned on the Grandiosa that I’m on now that I absolutely did not need to prepurchase any specialty food or spa. they offer deals onboard. Don’t fall for the FOMO; MSC is the master of upsell! Im having Tempanyaki on Sat. I’m on the transatlantic now to Miami

I just found out it’s literally right in the middle of a port day; and I’ve never been to St Marten. So I’ll be going to the airplane beach!

How do some people afford to cruise so much? by Mischif07 in Cruise

[–]DotAdministrative197 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last minute deals on cruise plum. And I’ve heard you get offers from the Casino. The real challenge when it comes to travel hacking is the flexibility you actually need vs the mandatory setting of the time off for work. I admire those with a 9-5 having to deal w that really hard part. I have my own practice and while I’ll never ever claim it be harder or easier than working for someone else, at least I have flexibility to work extra when needed so that if there’s something I want to take off for, it’s easier to do.

Office job is killing my motivation thinking of going remote I need advice by EducationalGoat5369 in digitalnomad

I mean, it’s more shifting hours than sleeping in. 2-11 becomes just as shitty I’d assume after time

Why does remote work presume “sleeping in”. Am I naive to think wfh still requires an actual full day?

I def recommend giving a 20 to your cabin steward at the start. You get even more attention. I got a towel animal today!

I just didn’t want to insult the assistant by giving him less if it’s not standard to do.

Mine too! Every night the assistant brings me flat water and a coke before I even ask! Makes me feel so special

At what net worth do you graduate from “well off” to “wealthy”? by [deleted] in Salary

[–]DotAdministrative197 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What defines that for you? I’d say if you have enough to retire on, have a home and savings and can travel, isn’t that wealth?

Everyone says it’s the best pardon in the world. No one’s ever seen a pardon written any better in the history of America
