Retirement- This is the way to go!!!

Retirement



This sounds like the way to go!



>>> About 2 years ago my friend and I were on a cruise through the

>> western

>>>Mediterranean aboard a Princess liner. At dinner we noticed an elderly

>>>lady sitting alone along the rail of the grand stairway in the main

>>>dining room. I also noticed that all the staff, ships officers,

>> waiters,

>>>busboys, etc., all seemed very familiar with this lady. I asked our

>>>waiter who the lady was, expecting to be told she owned the line, but

>> he

>>>said he only knew that she had been on board for the last four cruises,

>>>back to back.

>>>

>>>As we left the dining room one evening I caught her eye and stopped to

>>>say hello. We chatted and I said, "I understand you've been on this

>> ship

>>>for the last four cruises". She replied, "Yes, that's true." I told her

>>>that I didn't understand and she replied, without a pause, "It's

>> cheaper

>>>than a nursing home."

>>>

>>>So, there will be no nursing home in my future. When I get old and

>>>feeble, I am going to get on a Princess Cruise Ship.

>>>

>>>The average cost for a nursing home is $200 per day. I have checked on

>>>reservations at Princess and I can get a long-term discount and senior

>>>discount price of $135 per day.

>>>

>>>That leaves $65 a day for:

>>>

>>>

>>>

>>>

>>>1. Gratuities, which will only be $10 per day. And the rest can be put

>>>into the slot machines.

>>>

>>>2. I will have as many as 10 meals a day if I can waddle to the

>>>restaurant, or I can have room service (which means I can have

>> breakfast

>>>in bed every day of the week).

>>>

>>>3. Princess has as many as three swimming pools, a workout room, free

>>>washers and dryers, and shows every night.

>>>

>>>4. They have free toothpaste and razors, and free soap and shampoo.

>>>

>>>5. They will even treat you like a customer, not a patient. An extra $5

>>>worth of tips and your casino winnings will have the entire staff

>>>scrambling to help you.

>>>

>>>6. I will get to meet new people every 7 or 14 days.

>>>

>>>7. TV. broken? Light bulb needs changing? Need to have the mattress

>>>replaced? No problem! They will fix everything and apologize for your

>>>inconvenience.

>>>

>>>8. Clean sheets and towels every day, and you don't even have to ask

>> for

>>>them.

>>>

>>>9. If you fall in the nursing home and break a hip you are on Medicare;

>>>if you fall and break a hip on the Princess ship they will upgrade you

>>>to a suite for the rest of your life.

>>>

>>>Now hold on for the best! Do you want to see South America, the Panama

>>>Canal, Tahiti, Australia, New Zealand, Asia, or name where you want to

>>>go?

>>>Princess will have a ship ready to go. So don't look for me in a

>> nursing

>>>home, just call shore to ship.

>>>

>>>PS: And don't forget, when you die, they just dump you over the side at

>>>no charge.
