    No longer? Im in my early 30s and have never been able to take a vacation since I’ve been on my own/with my wife. Between bills and rising prices, and my job combining pto and sick time, i dont have time or money to do anything more than a day trip to someplace not that far away.

      I’m in my late 30’s in the NYC area. What my wife and I consider a “vacation” is going to Philly and staying in a hotel with a pool, and just putzing around a different city for the weekend.

      The idea of taking a week+ off from work and flying somewhere is a foreign concept to me.

      There have been a couple of times that we have gone to states far away to stay with family/friends, but it’s usually for like a long weekend.
