I think the first post is beneficial as it shows the importance of having an incentive to save. Saving with an aim to travel provides purpose in life especially for retirees and even those who always find themselves short of funds to travel.
I had a colleague once years ago who would bring food from home and when we go to pub, he will nurse one mug of beer. But every years he will travel to Europe with his family as a matter of routine. It was pretty much basic and he would cover lots of places. He would share his approach and his experience but most of did not take seriously then.
People can start small with nearby locations and then move to countries further a field. Travel can help rejuvenate body and mind and keep people excited.
