"...spending at least 4.5% of one's entire paper wealth on one vacation..."

On several occasions, I've spent virtually 100%(never more) of 'my entire paper wealth' on a vacation.

I've never regretted it for one moment.

Life is not a dress rehearsal.

If they had been more responsible their daughter would still be in private school. Spending $45,00 on a vacation, with the salary he was making, was unbelievably reckless. And now the bill has come due, at his daughter's expense.
