<p>Your trip Dad II? Maybe not Hawail, but a trip to Italy would be viewed as discretionary spending by most…and especially IF the family was struggling with trying to figure out how to “raise” an addition $1000 in money due to lost W-S income potential. </p>
<p>Sorry…I would say the first way to deal with the W-S potential income loss is to tighten one’s belt at home…no trips abroad or anywhere else for the family.</p>
<p>Look…we just finished paying for two kids to go to college AND we JUST took our first vacation in those 7 years.</p>
