This actually seems like a pretty clever plan -
 
The only problem is, you'd have to live on a Cruise ship.

I've heard about old folks doing that.

My friend's parents did that. They talked to a cruise line, and just moved in. The were on board for most of the year. Way cheaper than a old folks home, with great food and new people to meet every week.

I would want a room with a balcony or I'd go nuts.

Me too. Otherwise you're in a closet unless you're on public. ...but I doubt that can be $43/day.

Constantly surrounded by 3,000 to 5,000 people that I probably don't like? Nope.

The idea is NOT to go on cheap cruise ships ie not $43 a day ships.

I wonder what their tip was figured at when quitting.

There is a new cruise line coming out specifically for full time live aboard. You basically buy your "apartment/condo"

There has been the "Globe", a live aboard ship going for quite some time. Meant to be good.

Sounds like absolute torture.
