Europe, Asia, Caribbean, South America, Canada, plus domestic travel. I haven't been everywhere in the US obviously, but quite a bit, a lot of cities a ton (eg: probably been to NYC ~80 times in the last 10 years [all for work], Miami/FL ~25 times, Charleston ~15 times). I don't actually intend to go back into the work force after I retire at ~45ish, was being a bit facetious. I don't think all these airports and flights will go away anyway - just a bit more expensive, which won't impact me materially.

I do my part to support our country, my wife a lot more, and my taxes paid are insane at this point so definitely doing my part there. "The rich don't pay their fair share" isn't true when your income is W2 income. I'll average ~43% income tax rate over the next 3 years till I retire between state + fed.

Well you’re doing better than the majority. Don’t get me started on taxes either. We make in excess of 6 figures a year, not wealthy or rich, and we barely get by. It’s been an expensive administration with their policies for sure. Everything is more expensive.
