    Adding to their perspective, as another kid who grew up in a poor family… why not? Rich families were always spending “insane” amounts (aka literally any amount) on food, vacations, extra cars…

    $2,500 for a day trip? …sounds insane and unachievable, just like everything else in life. So, yeah, why wouldn’t it cost that much?

    When you are poor, the cost of everything sounds insane.

      It’s not 2.5k for the day trip, it’s just the ticket. And from what I heard, the actual expense will easily triple once you start spending for basic things inside like food and hotel.
