[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m am so lol, but that is such a true description of the parade of horribles in economy. And the reason why I sometimes will pay for first or business even though my income and net worth are less than those above. And why it’s completely silly to have an income of seven figures and be flying overseas in economy. [/quote]

Agreed- [b]the alleged coach/economy plus- flying 1.1 million HHI poster above is either a troll or a fool[/b][/quote]

$1.1m poster here. I have a couple of comments:
(1) Based on my degrees and the line of business I am in, I am not a fool.
(2) You are right, you would never know how much money we have based on the cars that we drive and our house, but we are just not into material things. Ironically, we like to travel (coach  :D ).
(3) Maybe one of the reasons that our NW percentile matches our income percentile is because we actually make saving money a priority.[/quote]

I [b]have been called an idiot for flying economy plus on DCUM. [/b]We have a $2m+ HHI. We fly economy plus now and flew economy plus at 1.1m and also 800k.

We recently went to Asia and I believe our original flights had cost around 15k for our family of 5. We did end up upgrading on the way home for 15k to be able to sleep. If we originally booked all business class, our trip would have costs 60k. Can we afford 60k for just flights for spring break? Yes, but we didn’t want to. We ended up splurging for flight back since Dh had to go to work and kids had school. Wanted to be able to sleep on plane.[/quote]

I’ve been called an idiot for paying for business class on overnight flights. Damned if you do, damned if you don’t around here.[/quote]
