Looking at these pictures, I'm so happy I'm an introvert that cares not for lavish lifestyles.
I can't begin to imagine how jealous extroverted party-type people would be, their urge to live such a lifestyle will never be fulfilled and at the very least (but only if they were a girl) they would only be a cumrag - or toilet if the owner is of a certain demographic.
Me? I can sit here full well knowing I wouldn't even enjoy myself on such a thing.

I'd love nothing more then to own/live on a yacht. If I'd have been smart I'd have focused on a career where I captain one. Or even captain commercial boats. Those captains make absolulte bank. (1K per day or more when you are out to sea.)

These yachts are basically just floating party places hence the term "gin palace".

has there ever been a statement more true of yachts than
"if you have to ask the cost, you can't afford it"

Trump got rid of his yacht because it was too expensive to use. Just goes to show you how pricey they are.

Engineers have a good life on them. 80% of the time theyre in port and going ashore, or playing fifa in the control room whilst being anchored 1 mile from shore.

as for these yachts they're insane but so useless, it's better to know someone that owns one or something like that to party on it every once in a while

Engineers and officers, from bottom end to top end, on the similar size yachts are paid 6000-15000 a month and work time on equals time off.This. I've heard stories where sometimes these things are never used, they pay for a full time crew so it is ready at any time and never use it.

Not bad.Some yacht owners also use it to avoid paying taxes.......I read somewhere that if you stay at sea for a certain amount of time and not docked, a country can't claim you live there, thus avoiding some type of tax burden
I'd hazard a guess that someone who owns a yacht, owns property in Monaco, which has no income tax. Philip Green, high street tycoon paid himself a dividend for £1billion and paid no income tax on it because he's domiciled in Monaco.

That means in australia it would cost 1,3 mil just to fuel up.

Just think about the fuarking lifestyle of those people. They're on a level most of us can't even fuarking imagine under the hardest influence of the most exotic drugs.
What we think we'd be doing if we were rich, that's what these people think an average peasant probably lives like in some particularly chitty alternate universe.

Thanks for depressing me op
It is better to die on your feet, than to live a lifetime on your knees
a coward dies a thousand deaths, a soldier dies but one.
The odds are great
But my spirit is strong,
My faith unbreakable,
My blood is pure.
I SHALL ENDURE!
I WILL ENDURE!
the strength of a gesture, a thought with no voice
