Back in the day (back in the decade, several decades ago) I read Playboy pretty much cover to cover. I quit reading it when the dropped the Playboy Advisor, the jokes, and most of the cartoons.
I’m doing that, though not voluntarily. My closest grandchild and my two great grandkids live about 250 miles away. My others are all 800-1000 miles away. Not on purpose, just the way employment and interest called them away. And since my wife died almost two years ago, the spending is way down, so I have more money than I’ve ever ha in my life. But still not that much. The total, including 401 K, but not including home equity is barely $100,000. But that’s a fortune to someone that lived with wife & kids paycheck to paycheck for 40 years.
No surprise about the vacations. Most Americans can’t afford to go anywhere. The billionaires have all the money.
