The economy may be slumping, but things are looking up in the jumbo yacht industry. Orders for yachts over 130 feet in length are up, according to the Wall Street Journal, citing something called "Superyachting Index," which must be totally impartial since it's tabulated by a bunch of companies that sell and lease these floating monstrosities. But you know what the sad part is? The industry would be growing even faster were it not for the pesky fact that billionaires can't find enough crew members to staff their ridiculously large ships!

That's right. Apparently there's a shortage of people willing to take to the seas and wait on people like Carl Icahn, Barry Diller and Ron Perelman hand and foot. (That's Perelman's boat above, by the way.) We can't imagine why not! Aren't there, like, 10,000 people who have lost their jobs on Wall Street? What could be better than a new job and a vacation wrapped in one? At least that's how James Colquhoun describes life as a mega-yacht: The operator of the cheesy site getajobonayacht.com and a former employee of the Tatoosh, the boat owned by billionaire Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen, Coloquhoun suggests you'll party with Pamela Anderson and jet-ski all day, if his cheesy YouTube video (with accompanying techno) is any guide. And he even promises to show you how to hide your money offshore, too.
