[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No idea, as DH and I both grew up working class/lower middle class. Off topic but we live in an UMC neighborhood now and I am amazed by all the expensive travel some families do (and wonder how they afford it). Pricey trips at peak rates for every school break/holiday (Hawaii, ski trips, Caribbean, Europe etc) and then really big summer trips also (African safaris etc). And many have larger families with 3-4 kids! Anyway I definitely think travel is a big topic among a lot of the UMC. So doesn’t seem that unusual to me. [/quote] We do all of these things and we prioritize accordingly. DH and I both make good money, but we both drive used carmax cars, don't have any of the latest gadgets, there is only one TV in our home, our kids do not have phones. We spend our money on travel not day to day wants. [/quote]
