There are Disney planners out there that don't cost you anything.


I was teeing him up for a

“How much?”

“About tree fiddy.”

But that’s ok.

I was about to tell you the same thing about the Disney Planners. Joke went right over my head.

So did I . One of them was my parents booking a trip for all their grand kids and one was just my family. We will have another 4 or 5 day trip in 2027.

I mean, that's a pretty disingenuous summary of the video. The first couple says that they only have about $1K in consumer debt. The second couple says they have $60K in debt, but $53K of that is a car loan. That's on the lower end of "bad debt" for most people. If people didn't take vacations while in any type of debt 99.9999% of people would never vacation.


All their debt is bad debt. The first couple had 170k in student loans and credit cars.. 100k for a Business Admin degree? She said she is working extra shifts so she must be in the service industry.

The second couple has 120k in auto debt which is the worst debt. Two depreciating assets. I could understand if it was debt in the purchase of a home. At least the home will appreciate and you can live in it. You can't live in a car unless you are poor and they will be poor by making bad decisions

Honestly everything is expensive these days. A 3 br condo beach side at Ft Walton is close to 5k for 7 nights.

the very first people he talks to are Disney Adults who have a combined $170k in debt between them without a care in the world….next guy says his debt is “minimal” at $60k

Does this include a home mortgage? If not, that's bad. Maybe they have Bentleys.

That's not really answering how you have intimate knowledge of many of their financial situations.

Dude if that were true, I wouldn't be tripping over those crowds there. Those parks would be so much better if half the people weren't there on any given day.


Came to post this. Went over Mardi Gras. It was slammed. Plenty of trash. They could raise the prices for all I care.

They're the only ones who can afford WWE live too. Money in the bank ticket prices at the smoothie king are probably going to be absurd.

I don’t know the exact specifics, but as far as really good friends and in-laws I have a pretty good idea of what they make and know what kind of background they come from as far as whether they would have family money to use for trips. That’s not exactly like looking at people you don’t know and judging whether they can afford based on appearance

This thread was a hilarious read. A bunch of closed-minded people telling other people to stop being so closed-minded.
