This is what really got me too. I've only seen a couple of their florida ones and turned it off with her attitude toward the children. I was curious to see the cruise ones to see if she's read here and took it on board what's said here - it was worse!!!! Dad with Camera, Mum with phone, kids ignored, sat on a totally separate table at both meal times. The older daughter came running over when the Elsa show was on and was met with the parents just filming the show instead of savouring the moment with her. I cringed so much at Sian doing the selfie video singing along. Later when Sian asks the older daughter what her favourite thing was that day in bed the daughter just turns her back on her. Good on her for not playing their game. What lovely memories for their children. Of course Sian needs shopping, insta photos and cocktails. No wonder they are friendly with S&D, cut from the same cloth.
It is a good deal, 10% off your next booking and that $250 goes towards the cost, even on the cheapest rooms on the shortest cruise it’ll save you £100. I ended up doing the same but only at the very last minute before leaving on the final day. Deciding within an hour that your a DCL convert is dumb, especially when you’ve not experienced rough weather or tried all their is to do on the ship.
I would love to know this too. My husband and I both have good salaries, 1 child and a not too high mortgage we have some money saved for a rainy day. We went to the DVC talk in WDW a couple of years back and honestly couldn’t justify the cost. We probably could have afforded it but I guess it’s priorities. We need to have money saved in case our washing machine breaks down, a car tyre bursts or we get a dental bill - looking at you there big Dave!
There is such a difference between Krapilly (love this) and the Despicable 3, both families who vlog. I love the Despicable 3. They are so respectful to Jimmy and are such good parents while still managing to share elements of their lives. And they work - so much more relatable!Krapilly definitely see themselves as the next big thing and have eyes on doing you-tube/ influencing full time.
A calculated gamble which they are happy to get in debt for?
I bloody LOVE The Despicable 3. They save all of their YouTube earnings and put them aside for their son!
Its fairly easy to afford a couple of trips to WDW a year if you don't have kids, don't smoke, don't have sky TV and don't go out drinking. We have over the years been twice a year and we don't have well paid jobs. Its all down to money management and what else you do or do not spend your money on.
that’s how we’ve done it, we don’t go out much or smoke, plus I saved a lot of money this last two years not having to travel to and from work - that’s enabled us to go. But it’s been hard and I worry we won’t have enough money.
Honestly, it is the lack of awareness of their privilege and position that gets me. Fine, they some how either through debt, family money, or work they get to go on these trips frequently but they become so desensitised to the experience of it all and treat it like its just something other people do already.
Same here but there’s so many that don’t seem to have any job at all?! That’s the kind of vloggers I’m nosey about when it comes to affording trips!
