I had to learn this lesson the hard way with losing weight but it also applies to saving money. There will always be another excuse (someone's birthday/wedding/vacation/whatever) to splurge (on eating food in my case or spending money in your case). "Just this once," we tell ourselves. It takes a broad scope to realize this lie.
Let her down gently. If you think things are expensive now, just wait until January.

All you can do is clearly explain the finances to your mom while your dad is there. It's their marriage, their money. You should really impress upon your dad that the market is most likely about to crater, and covid lock downs are coming back anyway. You could spend that money, have it locked up in tickets and hotels, just to never go anyway. All you can do is make the choice as clear to them as possible after that it isn't your money or guilt.

you gotta figure out how to make it so they can go. there's enough time between now and next summer to figure it out. it won't be easy, and maybe you personally need to help, but robbing people of these moments is like robbing them of the meaning of life.

50% of /biz/ are terminally online misanthropic baggots who gamble on rigged meme tokens because they think getting rich will let them score revenge on the society which has (rightly) shunned them. be careful following the anti-travel advice from people addicted to fast casual dining and video games.

you gotta figure it out OP. if they can get a side hustle job that pays them as little as $750 a month for the next ten months that should be enough for each of them to go. you buy the plane ticket with the savings then go into work mode to pay it off.

This is a good point, but what are we saving money or losing weight FOR? indulging in the benefits of your discipline is not the same as giving into your undisciplined desires.

to use the weight loss analogy this is like getting in shape enough to being to run a marathon. the work it took to get you to that point is what enabled you to do this you wanted to do, and doing it is not betraying yourself.

unfortuantely in this case it costs a lot of money, but if there's a will there's a way.

Just visualize them as gainfully employed. You can put words into other people's mouth with your mind. When you see them they will say exactly what you visualized them saying. Imagine what they would say if they solved their financial problems and catch the mood and hold onto it. The Golden Rule is "do unto others and you would have done unto you" well, you wouldn't want other people imagining the worst for you, would you? See your family members as really small in your mind, the size they are in the palm of your hand. Take in a big breath and when you exhale, blow their problems away into the wind.

get a new airline credit card and try to pay it off quickly. Should be doable. Talk to family about sharing airbnb/lodging/food costs because of financial situation you are trying to pull out of a nosedive. It should work out.

You don't get time back. You don't get these opportunities back. Bread and roses. You can't spend your life making sure it was affordable the whole time. You won't get to do anything.

That being said your parents are in this situation because they've had tons of good times without paying attention to their finances so maybe fuck em. Idk. You do run out of family weddings though as you get older and family breaks apart in modern times.

A rich family member is absolutely going to plan a family vacation for a destination wedding. So imagine all the expenses for a week long vacation in france for two people tagging along with rich relatives. The problem is that the cousin/cousin's parents did not offer to pay for some of the expenses which causes a lot of issues in many families when these weddings/vacations come up. You could say no to the whole thing or just the vacationing, but you will look autistic/poor doing so.

If a choice had to be made between your mom going on the expensive trip and maintaining their financial stability, the best decision, from a financial standpoint, would be to prioritize their long-term financial well-being. It's essential to preserve the savings and emergency fund, especially if it prevents them from living paycheck to paycheck, as that can lead to financial stress and insecurity.

However, this is a deeply personal decision that should ideally be made through open and empathetic communication with your parents. It's crucial to consider their feelings and desires while also ensuring that the family's financial foundation remains secure. Exploring alternative ways to fulfill your mom's travel aspirations without compromising their financial stability could be a compromise to consider.

ScorchCoin is like getting married, because once you've made that commitment, its for life. It's a long term investment that can lead to the creation of a strong and healthy family.

only valid point is that your mother didnt travel much, but we are talking about fucking France for gods sake. Go visit anything but France

Correct. They can live stream their stupid wedding. And mom can book a more affordable vacation close to home if she really desires it.

Destination weddings are the most stupid thing ever. If they want to travel why don't they do a honeymoon instead of forcing their family into their trip.

You've made yourself the anchor that keeps your parents from financial ruin. You need to hold true in this. They may hate you, but they're retarded. In time they'll thank you for your stern money management

its a good way to keep all the loser of the family away.

It'll cost $5k just for the flights over there for his parents and the aunty that lives with them. If they don't have passports already or passports have expired, they have to pay another $325 each to get one, that's another 1k. They might have to spend 6k before they even step one foot in France.

Is this trip really going to cost $20K for three people (or even just one person, if you and your dad don't go)?

This. Last family wedding I went to was 20 years ago. Last any wedding I went to (two former colleagues) was 7 years ago.

Sorry bro but the trip will be bad on finances. Your parents sound low IQ so chances are they need to arrange passports too which adds costs. Multiply that be three. Your parents will go broke trying to keep up with the Jones’s

Besides it’s a cousin. I doubt they’re even that close.

fuck you. I'm not attending even a high school graduation if I don't feel like it, and I still love my family.

I'm also going to guess you grew up in a poor family.

loving your family is a day to day activity. it's not something you make up for by spending a bunch of money in a symbolic show. just literally care about them instead.

If she actually wants to go to France would maybe consider this. I wouldn't be pigeonholed into travel just because someones getting married there OP. Travel can be special, but I would remind her it may be better to travel later on, plus you can see more nearby countries and cultures. If its just France and fomo and its not her top 3 to see countries then wahts the point desu

They can’t afford it dude, sorry. As another Aussie, our dollar is atrocious and $5k which most here would deem a reasonable holiday budget will not get them far. It’ll do flights and accommodation for maybe 3 or 4 days in EU and keep them fed.

Rich relatives are incredibly obtuse and lack awareness for suggesting the entire thing without coming to the table in some way to fund it for your parents.

Sydney is like this these days as well, except our homeless are Aboriginals instead, or the odd mentally ill white bloke. Outside of Town Hall station under a little footbridge they’ve set up a little campsite, and Eddy Avenue in front of Central has a row of sleeping bags and blankets where they crash for the night.

[Anonymous No.56063160]

Sad, but at least your homeless are kind of locals. In EU the crime comes from negroes that come from abroad and are protected by law in a way. Theres more and more of them, your aboriginals are a dying breed who got conquered way back
But i think you have an asian problem? Like lots of asians coming into your country, but at least asians are hard working people, you dont see many asians running around robbing people, they are more likely to open a shop and sell you goods than anything xD

I agree. The rich people throwing the inconveniently located wedding should pay for all the guests to travel to where they are because family is important
