[quote=Anonymous]Our net worth is a little over $3 million and we make $315k.

Most expensive trip was the most recent one, Switzerland. The lodging alone was $8k for 8 days. A crappy hotel was depressingly $500 per night due to peak season, and we now also pay a premium to have more space with a 4-year-old. I also like going to places when weather is ideal, so that ups the cost, too.

We used points for business class flights, but those would have been around $3k a piece.

If it were just my husband and me, I don't think we'd ever choose Switzerland. But we went because it was one of the few places I thought our kid would enjoy, too. Trains? Cable cars? Gondalas? Epic playgrounds? Wildflower hikes? Car-free alpine towns to run around in? I'm still reminiscing about seeing my kid excited to do karaoke in a gondola.

Can't imagine spending more than $10k on a trip, though, because there comes a point where spending more doesn't get me more value.

Everyone's different, though. My sister spent $12k on a Bahamas trip for a family of 4 and that cost blew my mind. Personally wouldn't spend that much on a beach trip, when a local one is just as fun to me.[/quote]
