I actually think vacation trips are something that families enjoy and remember for ever. I think more should spend time together. The problem is people like you who don’t think spending time together is a good investment. It is! And on your death bed that extra 5 grand in your bank account is not going with you. But the memory of that vacation will stay with those you left behind. America is going towards your thinking unfortunately. Probably a great reason we are in the mess we’re in.
We do Lake Front every year up the mountains.This year our place sleeps 24.Lot’s of FUN.
My husband retired,we had too many bills so we told the kids that the first one who bought a house with an in-law-swite that we liked we would move in.Sold our house-got full price,kept our shore place and we have fun.
