How to save alot of money while working on a cruise ship.
Hey Sailors, most people think saving money while working on cruise ships is easy because as a crew member, you don’t have to pay for food, rent, or transport which are some of the most costly things on land.
I was one of these people, but after working on ships for 4 years, I now know it’s not as simple as you may think.
In this video we will go through some of the mistakes I made during my time as sea, so that we can all learn from them, and at the end I will advise you on things to be aware of which will make saving money, more doable.
This video will be a great watch if you are thinking of working on a cruise ship and want to save money or, maybe you currently work on cruise ships but are finding it hard to put away the pennies.
I hope the advice helps you create your little nest egg.

Hi me too
Hi Lucy thanks for the video. I used to be a spa girl myself and coming across your video reminded me. So I'll be going back as a shoppie
Its not what you make, its what you don't spend. My idea is simply to keep a log or running account about what you are spending money on. I see other crew buying stuff left right and center, clothes, souvenirs, going on tours drinking and eating their faces off. You have to fgure out if you want to save money or do you want to spend it on this other stuff.
Wow such an informative & detailed video, thanks for it👍👍💙💙

Hi Lucy, thanks so much for sharing all your videos on cruise ship topics. They have been super helpful to all of us 😊 I was wondering if you have ever tried using pocket wifi before? I'm just thinking that it might be a good alternative but not sure if it'll work. Kindly share your thoughts about this please. Thank yoy very much 😊💜
Hi! How does crew get cash in cruise? I mean from his/her own salary? Like in cargo vessel we get cash from Master, later the same amount gets deducted from our salary account. What is the system of getting some portion salary as cash in cruise liners?As you know crew needs cash for going shore leave or buy something bla bla. I would be very grateful to know. Please!
Hi thanks for the information, I am new on board a get my first contractrac ,I will like to known how much you spend on personal thinks like soap desodorant and shampoo?
can you let us know of how to go about hmrc forms etc so to helps those of us living in the uk🤞🤞i found it so complex reading about how to prove your work and not pay tax

I think I heard a puddy cat in background? How can you leave such a bloddy wonderful thing? I hardly leave my condlo cause Im owned by 3. I spend lots on litter food vets etc etc Will you come to California to babysit while I go to Ikaria?
I'm really curious about the crew bar and the limit you can consume. If saw a beer or a wine costs $2 then even if you go seven nights a week the total would only be $14 per week. If you had more than one drink you would be over the limit if tested so if you follow that rule it shouldn't cost too much.. I know you said that people will drink more than the limit so lets say 3 drinks a night for seven nights it would come to $32.
i give you like from Croatia
We also can't drink even if on port we will be fired if seen
Hi, enjoying your videos. Could you explain about Security gaurd job on a cruise ship.

Most of the lines have atm onboard.
I would wait to be bought drinks and drink them periodically.
