[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Between fixing the house and some other things, we have maybe $2,500 available but spouse and child are pushing for a larger vacation. I am very uncomfortable paying anything with credit or dipping into the financial cushion. Any ideas on how to manage this without starting WWIII at home?[/quote] Discuss the financial facts, discuss what each of you think is reasonable to spend, discuss what each of you hope to get with what you spend, and then come to the middle ground. Fight fair and leave emotion out of it. There isn't that much difference between 4K and 2.5K.[/quote]
