When you have more money than you could possibly spend, you might consider traveling the world, or you might want to purchase (another) luxury home among other people of the same class. Then there are the people who do both. The World is a unique cruise ship that has 165 luxury apartments on board and cruises around the world every year. People can buy these apartments for millions of dollars, and then pay recurring fees for food and services. In return, all your needs are met in the swankiest ways, and you can see the sights of the world from the comfort of your own home. Plus your neighbors are all people of means who must be accepted by current residents before they purchase a slot on the ship.

Peter Antonucci spent six years on The World, in five different apartments, upgrading each time he moved. While the ship traveled around the globe, he came and went as he pleased, flying home to New York or going on extended adventures, and then flying to The World’s location to rejoin the cruise. After moving back to dry land, he used his journals to write novels set on a ship. Antonucci told CNN about the process of purchasing an apartment on The World and what it’s like to live this way. It’s a glimpse into a life the rest of us can only dream of. -via Fark
