Sell the house, sell the dog. For maybe $60k/year you'll never cook another meal again !

No way. Once I had an offer to w*rk in Bermuda at the then SOFAR station. Wise of them, they flew me down there, put me up for a week to see if I would like to live there. All other hiring issues were settled, + twice a year 2 weeks free transport to southern USA or to Belize etc. for vacation.
In three days I decided the island was too doggone small. Being stuck on ship however nice with next to zip for hobbies and the attendant toys is not my cup o tea.

Some of those "all inclusive" deals are better than others. The military ones can leave a bit to be desired.
Cruises do have hobbies built in for you. besides the ever-ending food orgy...
We have the fabulous Art Auction, We have the Inch-o-Gold sale, and we have the Bingo-Rama.
What more could you possibly want !

I see. OTOH if you are a male over 70 and ambulatory, and hobby is meeting, and engaging strange females in potential close quarters, that might be OK.
