Last week we partnered up with Zynlo Bank to cover the hottest topic of the summer - where is everyone traveling to? And, more importantly, how much is it costing them???
July 4th weekend is now behind us but answer us truthfully - do you regret how much money you ended up spending?👀 Asking for a friend because... 60% of our Frich friends would go on a trip even if they couldn't afford to.
We do believe that experiences are worth the money, but you need to be honest with yourself on what you can afford. The good thing is that most of these friend trips happen at the same times each year so you can plan ahead! Personally? We think trips with friends is a very, very important savings goal.
The average answer was $2.06K.
If your number is way above this (and it brings you anxiety just thinking about how you'll afford it), we genuinely recommend you to have a conversation with your friends on how you can manage the price of these group trips. Having fun doesn't need to be expensive - sometimes the more lowkey experiences can be way more memorable!! And trust us when we say this - there's at least one more friend in your friend group that's freaking out about the cost as well. You'll be their lifesaver 🫂
You guys were perfectly 50/50 on this. For the ones who said yes - we applaud you!!! You are our inspiration. For the rest of you, we've got some words of wisdom.
