[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I thought most people we know likely think we have a much higher income than we do. We live in a house we bought for $200k that is now worth nearly $1m. We eat out a lot and we go on a lot of trips and vacations. A LOT. But we use points and deals all the time and I'm an excellent frugal travel shopper. We've had some amazing trips, including a two week trip to the SW for less than $2k incl air fare (family of four), regular trips to Europe and to Maine every summer. But our vacation budget so far this year has been less than $3k. If it comes up I'll share my travel tips, but sometimes I'm embarrassed how our travels may appear to others. Our income is actually about $95k with a stay at home spouse.[/quote] None of this means you're wealthy. Indeed, your lack of telling others upfront what good deals you're getting it for (unless it comes up) means you want people to think you're richer than you are. [/quote]
