Las Vegas Vacation - Oh My!
It’s taken me awhile to digest the whirlwind of activity from last week. Especially since my traveling companion (who also happens to be my sister) lives in a very different income bracket than me …
She is quite wealthy. In fact a self made millionaire. Which is not usually an issue between us. Seriously. Because to me she will always be my-baby-sister no matter how fat her bank account is.
But …
It’s weird traveling with someone with a lot of money.
We had a $400 meal one night - a $400 meal.
She treated, obviously. But oh my, it was hard for me to handle her spending on one meal, what is one month worth of groceries for me and Craig. It truly was a lovely meal in a lovely restaurant … but $400 … oh my!
I think I’m still dizzy from the whole experience.
Here I was worrying if Craig had remembered to use the $6.98 in CVS reward bucks that were set to expire while I was out of town and she’s throwing down $400 for dinner.
It was weird to say the least!
So where do you stand on the whole “Very Spendy” meal spectrum?
Would it be something you would relish and savor?
Or would it freak you out - like it did me?
personal finance
I would have the same reaction . . . it would totally freak me out! The whole time I would be thinking of all the things that need to be paid . . .
@labelladiva - I am still flabbergasted at the amount of money she spent those 5 days …
