How the other half live

[tynesider]

Last week The World is the largest privately owned residential yacht on Earth, berthed where I work, its a beautiful looking ship and home to around 200 who live on it and sail around the world. The cost of the most luxurious cabin ( if you can call it that ) is a staggering 18 million. The cheapest is 800.000. They also pay 1 million a year for the fuel and upkeep.

Id be happy to be floating around on a barge mate its one of my life long goals which some people may find funny but to me that would be pure heaven on a barge with me dog just letting the world go slowly by.



I seriously wish i was them what a life.

I'm with Roachie on this one. I'd rather be on a sedate canal than getting seasick.

Thanks for that glimpse of The Other Side, Tyny Thing is though, I wouldn't fit in I cannot imagine how people can have so much money and not feel guilty, so they must be another species.

Of course, part of me wants to be rich, but it doesn't bear thinking about ??? Does me little head in ???

Roachie, sorry to turn you down about joining you on the barge, but I couldn't be doing with emptying the toilet

I'd only do it if it was the boat that guy built and it was with Guy Martin lol

I'm not jealous of the people on that yacht, they must all have a screw loose if they can go anywhere in the world and choose Newcastle lol

Hey Collie what wrong with Newcasil like pet? Its a canny place tu live yu naa
Anyway they are building to hellipads on the back so they don't even have to berth at all the ports.

[deesigner]

As I don't have any illusions of grandeur I won't say I should be living on that boat

Your not going to believe this but they had a gyroscopic pool table delivered that cost 18k, they play golf as well but I don't know how they do that, maybe the ball has string attached to it lol.
