With our current tech? No. And I think being too old to have kids would keep me off any colony ships, that should be people who can reproduce. And as I can't even afford to go to Europe I'm sure I can't afford space.

With perfect technology like in books and movies? And an unlimited budget or the Star Trek economic system? Oh hell yes. Of course.

ETA yes even if it was like a cruise ship with excursions to other planets as a tacky tourist yes yes yes I would do it.
