[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I know my vent is whiny and a first world problem. I'm also just sincerely curious how people can afford international travel both time- and money-wise...[/quote] It's not easy, but it's doable. It comes down to priorities. If you prioritize travel, then you cut other costs. That's what we do. [/quote] True to an extent, but I'd say that breaks down at certain HHI levels. For a lot of families, there simply is not a lot leftover once the necessities are covered. I think back to my parents- they weren't going to take away my sister's one dance lesson per week or my clarinet to finance a trip to Europe. Eliminating pizza takeout once per month wasn't going to get us to China. I feel fortunate than we can squirrel a bit more away to travel more often, but then again, we're not going to raid my kid's college fund to do it either.[/quote]
