I think you also got part of how I would feel... I don't think I'd be able to live as the crew of Serenity does, yet I envy them for doing so. Me? I need my culture. My mind requires things to do with it, and I'd be lookign for education and concerts, and while I'm not judging those who wouldn't be able to get onto the core planets, fact is that the outer rim wouldn't exactly have very good orchestras, choirs, or universities, just because of money issues. But I'd be torn, since I wouldn't be happy that there were people out there that needed the money I'd spend to go to the opera - they'd use it for a month's worth of food - but honestly? I'd probably end up believing that I was just one person and couldn't do anything. I might even be so naive as to believe that the Alliance really did take care of everyone. Yeah, that sounds about right. But while I need those two things - good music and good opportunities to learn and use my mind - if I couldn't find loving people on the core planets, I'd leave after I got a college degree and bring my music recordings with me.

Persephone looked like there was a mix of cultures and lifestyles which would make it an interesting place to live. The city on Beaumonde where Serenity was checked over looked lively, maybe based on Hong Kong, but I wouldn't want to spend too many evenings in the Maidenhead Bar - too much fighting 
.
It'd be amazing to live on Serenity, but I think I'd often get the feeling I needed my feet on firm ground.
Live on a core planet? mmmmm no.

A ship. I'd be out sailing the black. Not sure what I'd do to put bread on the table, but I'd figure out something.
