I LIVE in the US (Wisconsin), earn a decent wage, and still can't figure out how these two can afford visiting WDW quarterly (if not more frequently).
What the heck am I doing wrong?
And considering Wisconsin wages are higher even than London wages in most professions/industries minus the need for a long haul flight most of us Brits are also truly baffled by our vloggers going out there 4/5/6 times a year. The ones who go most often are those with either no job at all or low-paying jobs - by US standards dismally paying jobs. The ones who have 2 good salaries go once/twice a year and have a very modest life in the UK to enable that - L&R, Will& Lelly, Ian and David come to mind.
Looks like the bank of mam and dad + YouTube for Adam and benefits + bank of mam and dad for Gary. I tried pricing up some of their trips. Their latest one comes to £8K for the same date next year. The last trip is about the same. I got to £30,000 and stopped counting. That's not including the 30,000+ Adam put down for DVC or the annual fees he pays.
not even sure he pays for his own food
I remember being on benefits in my early 20s. I got so little - think £55 at the time. Everything seemed so expensive to me. A £2 chocolate bar was too expensive. Gary doesn't flinch at $50 pizzas or $25 burgers or $15 ice cream sundaes. The burger alone would be a huge chunk of his weekly payment if he is getting one and the fact he has zero reaction is puzzling. It means he's definitely not paying and he likely has little concept of money.
