      That’s what I thought this was literally about. Don’t wait to vacation because you might die. The chauffeur smiling, threw me though.

    Oh yeah, I’ll just go find thousands of dollars to burn and get to it!

    Travel is not accessible to everyone.

      Of course assuming they’re American. Venice is a couple of hundred quid for a long weekend from the UK.

          Airports are for planes, idiot. Of course parking a train there is expensive. Think, McFly!

              Why not? Is this not a reasonable place to park?

          You can take the train all the way to Venice, you don’t need to fly.

            Yeah, but the Chunnel is stupidly expensive. Pretty sure flying would be cheaper.

    I mean I had my kids in my late 20s. Everyone thought I was nuts, but my kids are gonna be off at college before I’m 50. I’ll be able to enjoy traveling, etc. When I’m not too old.

    Also I love that I’m not gonna be in my 50s raising teenagers

      I enjoyed tons of travelling in my 20s until I had kids mid-30s. I was young enough to go backpacking easily, stayed at random peoples places via couchsurfing. I don’t see myself doing that at an older age and I am glad I had that time.

      There are different ways to look at this.

      I did most of my traveling before kid (it helped that a lot was for work so they paid for it).

      Trying to travel with kid too though. We only had the one so that helps some.

    I started working with a financial advisor when I was 19 because I don’t want to work until I’m too old to live. FIRE or die trying.
