I think you and I got berated for saying that in the 30A spring break thread.

I think you are correct though. A lot of older people I know did minimal travel until they were 50 or 60+ and had saved a ton.

Yeah, I'm not trying to make a moral judgment here or romanticize prior eras. I do have my positions on that stuff, but it's not my point.

I think there is zero legit argument that the modern generations do everything bigger and spend more money on the "now" for better or worse. Which I think naturally makes it more of a challenge to have a SAHM without some considerable changes to the outlook/philosophy.
