Everyone is looking for a good investment these days. And with stocks, currencies and companies all crashing, some are finding that taking the trip of a lifetime is actually a smart move right now. Prices are good, crowds are fewer and the dividends like expanded worldview, lifelong memories, the satisfaction of boosting the global economy—can't be easily snatched away.

"It seems people would rather give up something else than the big trip," he says. Travel has become a necessity. It's just how we travel that is changing.

For instance, even though more women than men are still homemakers without paying jobs, women have been taking over more responsibility in the business world, earning higher sal
