I asked myself the same thing when I took my family to Disney World, in OCTOBER. The place was packed! And I’m asking myself, where are all these people getting the money for this. Some people are going to feel the pain in the next couple years, it’s not going to be pretty.

Yea, thanks for this important “and global” remark :slight_smile: Actually, I think on average, the members of this forum are significantly better off compared to average American (and global) citizen. Or if not better off now, then usually have knowledge and dedication to reach this level soon.

I’m going to Disney with my family for Christmas. I’ve been saving for it for a while, though.
