Cost is all relative to what you like to do. We do have annual tickets to WDW so once the pain of that purchase subsides, the fun can begin. Most years we will go up to WDW, three hours away and stay at the Fork, 8 or 10 times. Even if we were buying daily tickets, the costs are not a great deal more than what we spend for a days travel with our RV. Currently I budget $165 a day for travel in either of our RVs and that doesn't cover depreciation of the vehicle or loss of income if I had invested the same amount I spent on the RVs. Our annual tickets went up something like $45 each this year but still a good bang for the entertainment buck for us, especially when we take our grandsons, aged 9 and 10.
Spending a hundred dollars a day is not hard to do these days, it seems, going out to eat at a nice restaurant, playing a round of golf at a gold club and a couple of drinks afterwards, going on a fishing charter, renting a car or boat for the day, going flightseeing, and the lists goes on and on.
Suspect we have all noticed what it cost to fuel our vehicles these days, or how easy it is to spend $100 or more at the grocery store. Seems as though energy costs are raising the prices of everything, except wages and retirement incomes.
