I've got a business idea

[mapuc]

Following idea will never happen, ´cause i will never earn so much or get my hands on all the money needed.

Here's my idea

I buy Allure of the Sea or some other huge cruise ship

Send it to a shipyard where the ship will undergo huge Reconstruction. When the ship is finished the cruise will have lots of departments of different sizes

There will be international school for children, cinemas etc etc the ship will be like a little village except this village will be a floating one and only sailing where there's spring or summer

I don't know how much I should take in rental

Got this idea from an documentary and from Star Trek.

(Before I started this thread my head was filled with words and stuff about this idea and now when I'm writing it I have forgot most of it)

Sounds like the MV Explorer which was in town last year with all its students.

I had flashbacks of Balamb Garden from Final Fantasy 8

On this "houseboat" you do not disembark after some week or month you stay on the ship as long as you have your own department or pay for it.

It will be like you are living in a house near the ocean with your own balcony and your own kitchen a.s.o

You can of course go to one of the "Floating town"s restaurant and eat there

I have even been thinking about politics should the habitants on this ship have the possibility to vote on a mayor for this floating town (the captains of this ship will always have the last word(security etc)

Oh I get it now, you mean Apartments not Departments.
What is the name of that big cruise ship full of apartments that just sails the world so its residents don't pay tax anywhere?
Come to think of it I believe that ship that was in town recently too.

"....." as Squall would say.


I think we're going to see a few sea based cities in the future, be they on ships or on floating platforms, as sea levels rise there's going to be a lot of displaced people looking for somewhere to live.

Of course, we've got to figure out how to live on the ocean without completely screwing the ocean up, good game, good game.

I've always wanted to live in the Pirates of the Caribbean attraction at Disney.

If it ever becomes a reality you can be sure of one thing....it will be the wealthy and affluent who get to test it out first.
