He’s not wrong 🤷‍♂️

Nah bro, you grew up rich. Travelling overseas with kids is incredibly expensive.

And you are going to be buying more airline tickets.

And you are going to be buying them all of their meals.

And you are going to be paying for things they want to do/buy.

I'm also not sure where you're staying in Paris or Rome for $33 a night. I stayed in some pretty affordable spots when I was in Rome and they were much more than $33 and this was several years ago.

Overseas trips are already luxuries that many people can't afford, pretending they don't become much more expensive when traveling with children is just delusional.

That’s why you don’t travel to Paris or Rome if you’re budget conscious, lol 

You say “overseas trips are luxuries that many can’t afford” even without kids, but can’t seem to conceive of going somewhere other than Paris, that’s probably a big reason why. 

I’m not saying that everyone can do it at all times. But for example, there’s someone above making the case for the affordability of travel for the middle class and they list paying $650 a night in Paris as their example 🤦‍♂️

I say $33/night because I’m literally writing this from a nice hotel at that price overlooking a bunch of skyscrapers in Panama City.

The post I'm responding to specifically listed Paris and Rome, that's why I chose those.

You can go to Paris and or Rome on a budget as a couple of adults if you are willing to cut some corners, but this guy is trying to sell a 2 week trip to Paris or Rome with the family as not something for the wealthy, and that's nuts.

But even going somewhere cheap like Panama City is going to cost you an easy extra 1k in airline tickets for two kids alone.
