You're all financing your trips with credit arent you?
Not at all. Travel is surprisingly affordable if you're a single childless man.
>>2851203I pick the cheapest travel packages that give the most bang for your buck. Hotels, flights etc. are willing to offer huge discounts if you go off season
>>2851207Excluding round-trip transportation costs, renting an apartment and living in Japan for a month is cheaper.
I managed to book a flight to tokyo with only credit card points, I didn't pay a single cent
>>2851214Doubtful. The average salary in Japan is about $2800. Living in Japan on $1000 per month would be extreme poorfag tier. I bet your "apartment" would be little more than a closet with a bed crammed inside.
>>2851203Yes.A card that I pay off at the end of each month, just like every financially literate person.Airline points also cover a part of the expense.
>>2851207There's literally no reason to not use credit. Nothing to do with affordability. Unless you're getting a fantastic deal with cash only it's just pure stupid to not use credit for cashback / points. Maybe it's different in cuck parts of the world, but interest does not apply to purchases unless you don't pay off the statement within a month.

>>2851203BTC gains for me, made 50k early on and have been sitting on it until now.
No I have job money since I slaved away during my youth like a loser.
>>2851207Especially if you have a well paid job. You can travel like a richfag.
I’m in college and afford my trips by donating plasma. An extra 400 a month adds up over time
>>2851266I use credit cards, I just don't depend on them the same way other people do. OP is talking about people with no money using their credit cards to travel, and paying it off in small installments later. Millions of Americans actually do this.The way you've described credit card usage is pretty much what I do. There's a difference between using them out of necessity and convenience.
>>2851203No, I'm a single childless multimillionaire
>>2851203I pay for my food with Klarna, it's 2025
Why would you ever pay with yet to depreciate fiat when you don't have to?
