The Cost of Living

Contents

In the 25th century, when megacorporations dominate the Orion Spur, living is not something one can do for free. While some can eke out a meager existence on frontier worlds where money is not needed to provide for oneself, in civilized space megacorporations squeeze everything they can out of the people, charging for as much as they can. This includes their own employees, and even on top-of-the-line ships, like the SCCV Horizon, very few things come for free to the people who work aboard.

Insurance

While also brought up in wants and needs, Insurance varies by plan and needs further explanation. Not everyone gets free insurance from work. Injuries are only covered through insurance or if they happen in the workplace, and can be proven NOT to have been caused by the negligence of the injuried employee. The only exception to this is the captain, who has the Idris Premium Package for free on account of their station; they are also one of the only two occupations aboard the Horizon who get insurance for free, the other being Consular Officers. Everyone else pays.

No Insurance

A costs-saver, especially for those indebted. Everything is out of pocket besides workplace accidents.

Price; Free.

Basic Insurance Package

Covers only essential appointments and treatments or appointments and treatments for chronic conditions.

Price; 1620cr a month

SCC Expeditionary Insurance Package

Only on-duties aboard the Horizon are covered, covers most appointments and treatments, fairly generous.

Price; 4050cr a month.

Idris Premium Insurance Package

Where you're set insurance-wise, for all intents and purposes covers everything.

Price; 8100cr a month.

Wants and Needs

A character's salaries and wages are used to fulfil their wants and needs. This can range from spending a significant amount of their income on housing, entertainment, and even buying tickets to travel the Orion Spur through ferries and whatnot. This is on a monthly basis and does not need additional calculations. Obviously this is not an exhaustive list of all the things your character may wish to purchase, so if an item you think your character would have is not on this list, either find the nearest comparable item and make up a believable number.
