SiDi, if I were a troll, I’d want to get down and dirty and keep on trolling. In fact, you can take out the word “if”. 🙂
Wolf, the OP didn’t say what you are claiming he did. He did not say that *any* unnecessary expenditure is wrong. He specifically referred to going to the country.
You extended it to other, lesser expenses, and then attacked your own straw man.
It’s possible the OP would extend it to lesser expenses, but they’re not the same, as I illustrated in my example.
