        Wow that’s still pretty cheap! In Los Angeles where I live is about $2500, but that’s just work and barely any play.

        Hi John.
        Travel=Freedom !!!Requires more than just Money???It’s a mind set,desire,can do ,get out of the way attitude.
        When I was working in London and traveling frequently,mostly to the US,my work mates could not believe that I could afford to travel so much and so frequently,especially the US guys!!!
        I just set very stringent goals for myself,saved hard,worked out ,ate well,worked two jobs -whatever it took.Also,this was at a time when Frequent Flier Miles were actually usable for flights !!!
        I once flew from London to the US WITH 4USD on my person for four days and had a great time(i’ve also flown with large sums of cash).Point is ,it can be done-set goals -attain them-simple no (not so easy-ha ha !!)One down side to this life style that I warn other people about is the fact that you will have to be somewhat anti -social in orded to attain these goals-you will see,it can alienate
        one from ones peers if myou let it.

        Take care,love.
