Now, let's take a listen to 435 00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:16,880 Speaker 2: this week's Money dilemma. 436 00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:23,399 Speaker 6: Hi, she's on the Money team. I have a question 437 00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:28,800 Speaker 6: following the tax time episode, I was planning to claim 438 00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:31,960 Speaker 6: the fixed rate tax method for working from home, and 439 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,199 Speaker 6: I've been keeping a detailed record of the days and 440 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:38,239 Speaker 6: hours that I do work for My question is do 441 00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:41,040 Speaker 6: I need to also have a record of the bills 442 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:44,200 Speaker 6: that I've been paying, so the electricity bills, the water bills, etc. 443 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:48,159 Speaker 6: For me, I currently live home with my parents, so 444 00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:50,840 Speaker 6: a lot of those bills are in their name other 445 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:54,600 Speaker 6: than see my telephone bill. I'm not sure if I 446 00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:57,880 Speaker 6: can then claim or what I should be doing. I'm 447 00:19:57,880 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 6: a bit confused, and I'm sure there's lots of other 448 00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:02,679 Speaker 6: peop out there in the same boat, So thanks for 449 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 6: your help. 450 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:06,480 Speaker 2: This one's an interesting one because the ATO recently came 451 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:09,240 Speaker 2: out and said that this year their focus is on 452 00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:12,560 Speaker 2: making sure that people are not claiming things they shouldn't 453 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:16,000 Speaker 2: be when working from home. Because we went through COVID, 454 00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:18,239 Speaker 2: everybody worked from home, there are a whole heap of 455 00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 2: I guess liberties that we could take to claim while 456 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:24,240 Speaker 2: working from home, and now they've been like mmmmmm not forever, 457 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:28,040 Speaker 2: my friends. So I find this an interesting one. Obviously, 458 00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:30,119 Speaker 2: I'm not an accountant, and we really should preface it 459 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:32,600 Speaker 2: with that, because I think that this is a topic 460 00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 2: that ultimately I can't directly answer. You need to talk 461 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 2: to your accountant. But what I do know is you 462 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:43,000 Speaker 2: need documentation. My other question is I'm making the assumption 463 00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:45,359 Speaker 2: that if your parents are paying the bill, they're maybe 464 00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:48,720 Speaker 2: splitting it with you, and if that's the case, you 465 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:51,879 Speaker 2: could potentially claim your portion, but you would need proof 466 00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:54,760 Speaker 2: of one the total bilberd to what your portion was 467 00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:57,640 Speaker 2: of it. But if you're not, for some reason, actually 468 00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:00,439 Speaker 2: directly paying the bill, maybe your parents just charge you. 469 00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:02,720 Speaker 2: This is an assumption, like two hundred dollars a week 470 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:05,760 Speaker 2: board or something. You can't go ahead and then claim 471 00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:08,520 Speaker 2: an expense that wasn't directly related to you even though 472 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:10,560 Speaker 2: you used it. It's kind of like you coming over 473 00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:12,920 Speaker 2: Beck and being like, oh, I work from Victoria's house, 474 00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:14,719 Speaker 2: you know, a couple of days a week, I'm going 475 00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:17,240 Speaker 2: to claim the internet access that I used at her place. 476 00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:19,080 Speaker 2: Like that's not how it works. So I think it's 477 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:22,240 Speaker 2: it's an interesting question. There's a lot of information this year, 478 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:25,159 Speaker 2: particularly about working from home and what you can and 479 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,960 Speaker 2: can't claim, on the ATO website, which is ATO dot 480 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:31,640 Speaker 2: gov dot au, and I would check that out because, honestly, 481 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:34,640 Speaker 2: the game has kind of changed a little bit. They've 482 00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:38,600 Speaker 2: definitely refreshed the way that they are letting taxpayers claim things, 483 00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:41,960 Speaker 2: but also what costs they're letting you take advantage of 484 00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:44,320 Speaker 2: and not. So I think it's really important to I guess, 485 00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:47,720 Speaker 2: do a bit of research. There's definitely merit in keeping 486 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 2: that diary that you've kept of when you're working from 487 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:52,040 Speaker 2: home and how that works. But at the end of 488 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:53,960 Speaker 2: the day, you need to kind of look at what 489 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:56,320 Speaker 2: is most applicable to you and what you think is 490 00:21:56,359 --> 00:22:00,000 Speaker 2: fair and reasonable. So I would, honestly, if you're confused, 491 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:02,520 Speaker 2: talk to an accountant. As you guys know, I'm a 492 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:05,199 Speaker 2: big fan of getting professional advice where you can afford it. 493 00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:07,760 Speaker 2: The other money win with seeing an accountant is you 494 00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,680 Speaker 2: can claim the accountant's fees next year on your tax 495 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:12,399 Speaker 2: returns to their tax deductible, which is. 496 00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:14,800 Speaker 4: Kind of sexy and more often than not they pay 497 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:17,240 Speaker 4: for themselves. Last year was my first year seeing someone 498 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:19,720 Speaker 4: a tax agent, and it literally they claimed me so 499 00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:21,199 Speaker 4: much more than I knew that I could. So if 500 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:24,200 Speaker 4: you're in that situation, it might pay for itself. 501 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:28,280 Speaker 5: Okay, so I obviously can't be giving advice on this, 502 00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:31,160 Speaker 5: but I think everything you guys have said is elite. 503 00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:32,879 Speaker 4: You can have the first crack at the community to 504 00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 4: let me have about that. 505 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 2: Okay, that found great. You're nothing if not generous, Jess. 506 00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:38,480 Speaker 4: I just won't need to go first. 507 00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:44,320 Speaker 2: So that's a good idea. You're nothing if not generous. 508 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:48,360 Speaker 2: I'm nothing. That is not how we speak to our 509 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:53,480 Speaker 2: fellow team members. For you, what's weird for me? 510 00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 5: I'm so sorry. 511 00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:58,119 Speaker 2: You're not sorry. You're sorry you got called out. I 512 00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:01,800 Speaker 2: am sure even three people left listening to this. 513 00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 4: I know. 514 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:05,720 Speaker 2: Thanks for coming all the way. All right, community dilemma, 515 00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:08,000 Speaker 2: let's dive in this week. I got a message and 516 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,960 Speaker 2: it sounded like this, Hi, Ve, I would love your advice. 517 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:13,480 Speaker 2: So I'm going to Europe soom with two of my 518 00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:16,600 Speaker 2: best friends. Like everybody else in the country. At this point, 519 00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:19,440 Speaker 2: as we get closer, I've realized that I think we're 520 00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:22,159 Speaker 2: on totally different pages about what type of holiday and 521 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:26,320 Speaker 2: experience we want. Me and friend number one are quite similar, 522 00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:29,439 Speaker 2: and we've already compromised on accommodation and we met the 523 00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:33,159 Speaker 2: budget of quote friend too. We personally would have been 524 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:35,560 Speaker 2: willing to pay a bit more, but she wasn't, so 525 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:38,160 Speaker 2: we were happy to do this for her. But now 526 00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:40,679 Speaker 2: I'm looking at booking a bunch of restaurants and activities 527 00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:43,960 Speaker 2: for us, and she's rejected all of my suggestions, saying 528 00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:46,640 Speaker 2: that they're too expensive and she wouldn't pay that. I'm 529 00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:48,960 Speaker 2: stuck on what to do now, as me and friend 530 00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:51,480 Speaker 2: number one would love to go to nice restaurants and 531 00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:54,560 Speaker 2: treat ourselves. I've worked so hard to save up for 532 00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:56,560 Speaker 2: this trip, and if it comes down to it, I 533 00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:58,400 Speaker 2: would go and do these things, even if it meant 534 00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:01,000 Speaker 2: going without her. But is that awful of us to 535 00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:03,119 Speaker 2: leave her to do all these things when we're all 536 00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 2: meant to be traveling together? Mmmmmm tricky? Tricky? 537 00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:12,639 Speaker 5: Well, you know, I think we've all been that friend 538 00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:15,919 Speaker 5: that's kind of afford anything, But I think that there 539 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:18,879 Speaker 5: are al ways around it. It doesn't maybe sound like 540 00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:22,440 Speaker 5: the would I say, Friend number three, could I call 541 00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:26,840 Speaker 5: this person that Friend number three is willing to compromise 542 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 5: that much, but hopefully it's just like a financial compromise. 543 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:32,119 Speaker 5: Hopefully they're willing to be like, cool, I'll come to 544 00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:33,879 Speaker 5: this thing with you. I might just like eat first. 545 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:35,680 Speaker 5: That way I don't have to I can just buy 546 00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:37,359 Speaker 5: a starter and not have to spend too much money. 547 00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:39,320 Speaker 5: I still want to experience these things with you, but 548 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:43,240 Speaker 5: just not spend the money, which is completely You're able 549 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 5: to do that, like you don't have to miss out 550 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:47,920 Speaker 5: on things. But I would say, just have a I 551 00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:49,439 Speaker 5: don't know, just have a chat with this person, be 552 00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:52,160 Speaker 5: like is it financially you're not willing or not able 553 00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:52,680 Speaker 5: to do this? 554 00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:53,760 Speaker 2: Or do you? 555 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:57,280 Speaker 5: Are you feeling like this is overwhelming? You like, is 556 00:24:57,280 --> 00:24:59,679 Speaker 5: there an underlying reason why this person is kind of 557 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:03,040 Speaker 5: like things? Because it's literally just financial. There are so 558 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:06,720 Speaker 5: many ways around that eat first, go get some street food, 559 00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:10,000 Speaker 5: go whatever, you know, do cheaper things, and also do 560 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:12,000 Speaker 5: the more expensive things. But your friend doesn't have to 561 00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:14,879 Speaker 5: the participate or spend as much money as you're going 562 00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:16,720 Speaker 5: to spend. There are definitely ways around them. 563 00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:21,760 Speaker 4: I think it's hard because in my mind, everyone's entitled 564 00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:23,720 Speaker 4: to holiday that the way that they won and going 565 00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:26,120 Speaker 4: to Europe is no small undertaking. So on one hand, 566 00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 4: I'm like, well, for the friend with the smaller budget, who, 567 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 4: as you said, we have all been there, you know, 568 00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:32,720 Speaker 4: she might just want to get there, and she might 569 00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:34,080 Speaker 4: just be like, oh my gosh, I'm real happy to 570 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:37,800 Speaker 4: be here, can barely afford to do anything, but excited nonetheless. 571 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:39,960 Speaker 4: But at the same time, the friends who have the 572 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:42,119 Speaker 4: larger budget, I also go for a lot of people, 573 00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:44,200 Speaker 4: a trip to Europe is a once in a lifetime trip, 574 00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:46,879 Speaker 4: and so if there's really exciting things that they've saved 575 00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:48,800 Speaker 4: and they want to do, they should also be able 576 00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:51,479 Speaker 4: to do those. So I feel like it is a 577 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 4: matter of getting on the same page before you go. 578 00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 4: You don't leave it till you get there, because that 579 00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:59,679 Speaker 4: is a recipe for disaster and for ruining everybody's time 580 00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:02,760 Speaker 4: and way everybody's money. But I think you kind of 581 00:26:02,760 --> 00:26:04,360 Speaker 4: have to find a way, as you said, to either 582 00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:07,200 Speaker 4: compromise and meet in the middle. Like they've compromised on 583 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:09,520 Speaker 4: the accommodation. It's within the budget of everyone. Are there 584 00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:11,280 Speaker 4: some restaurants that you can add to lists that are 585 00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:14,199 Speaker 4: in the budget of everyone? But I also think that 586 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:17,240 Speaker 4: they may be the girls with the bigger budget need 587 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:19,920 Speaker 4: to do some lower budget activities and the girl with 588 00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:22,320 Speaker 4: the lower budget needs to be okay with the girls 589 00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:24,639 Speaker 4: with the larger budget maybe going off and doing some 590 00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:26,560 Speaker 4: things on their own, because I think when you travel 591 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:29,320 Speaker 4: in a group, there's this misconception that you always have 592 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:31,960 Speaker 4: to be together all of the time. As well, we've 593 00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 4: done that. 594 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:34,000 Speaker 2: Jess and I went to Europe in a group of 595 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:36,160 Speaker 2: what was there five of us and it didn't mean 596 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:38,240 Speaker 2: that we were all doing the same thing. So guess 597 00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:41,760 Speaker 2: what beck no chance was I getting up at six 598 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:44,600 Speaker 2: am in Paris to go to the fancy museum to 599 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:47,080 Speaker 2: get the content photos. Who was doing this? 600 00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 4: Oh wow, I've always wanted to see water lilies and 601 00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 4: I got to sit there and absorb it and it 602 00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:52,560 Speaker 4: was the best experence. 603 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:53,760 Speaker 2: There was nobody else there. 604 00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:56,520 Speaker 4: It was like me and the paintings was gorgeous, and 605 00:26:56,560 --> 00:27:01,399 Speaker 4: I was like, I'm going to get me up. So 606 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:03,920 Speaker 4: that's the thing, right, Like everyone has different values, and everyone, 607 00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:05,919 Speaker 4: I think should be able to enjoy their holiday in 608 00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:08,359 Speaker 4: a way that they can afford. I think if you 609 00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:10,360 Speaker 4: do all want to travel together, you've got to compromise 610 00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:12,120 Speaker 4: and find a way to meet in the middle. If 611 00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:15,119 Speaker 4: you can't, it might be that maybe your trips just 612 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:17,280 Speaker 4: aren't a one and that is also okay. If you go, 613 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:20,320 Speaker 4: we want to have a really fancy, bougie holiday, and 614 00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:22,639 Speaker 4: Friend number three goes, oh, I just want to kind 615 00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:24,240 Speaker 4: of do a budget, just want to see the world, 616 00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:28,800 Speaker 4: backpack it across, also very fine. But it may be 617 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:32,280 Speaker 4: that you actually can't do the two concurrently, and maybe 618 00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:34,119 Speaker 4: you just go, oh, maybe we do two separate trips. 619 00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:36,920 Speaker 4: Maybe Friend three fines Friend four to go with them, 620 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:38,720 Speaker 4: and friend want and two go off on their own, 621 00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:40,520 Speaker 4: or maybe you travel together for a little bit and 622 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:44,120 Speaker 4: split off or something like that. Because you don't want 623 00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 4: anyone to come home from something like that, which is 624 00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:49,359 Speaker 4: such a huge financial investment to come from Australia just 625 00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:52,040 Speaker 4: to get there is several thousand dollars before you pay 626 00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:54,760 Speaker 4: for anything else. You don't want anyone to come home 627 00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:57,760 Speaker 4: from that feeling disappointed. And that's you know what I mean. 628 00:27:57,800 --> 00:27:59,359 Speaker 4: I feel like they're doing the right thing. Now hash 629 00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:01,000 Speaker 4: it out now, I think. 630 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:05,359 Speaker 2: Again reiterating what you said, Jess, like have the conversation 631 00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:09,080 Speaker 2: beforehand is perfect, but we're clearly not in that situation. 632 00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:11,480 Speaker 2: We've now booked we're in the middle of it. I'd 633 00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:13,480 Speaker 2: actually sit down and go, all right, well, let's wipe 634 00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:16,040 Speaker 2: off the table everything that we want to talk about, like, 635 00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:17,679 Speaker 2: I don't care about what you want to do, I 636 00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:19,880 Speaker 2: don't care what you want to do back, and we're 637 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:21,919 Speaker 2: going to sit down and just talk about all right, well, 638 00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:24,439 Speaker 2: what was your daily budget, what did that look like? 639 00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:28,439 Speaker 2: How can we mix and match activities to suit? Because 640 00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:31,760 Speaker 2: when you're in Europe, if you do enough good research, 641 00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:34,400 Speaker 2: there are so many free things to do. And some 642 00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:38,200 Speaker 2: of my favorite things when I have traveled to different locations, 643 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:39,720 Speaker 2: and I think I've said this on the podcast, on 644 00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:42,600 Speaker 2: the travel episodes, my favorite thing to do when I 645 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:44,800 Speaker 2: get to a new location I've never been on is 646 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:47,760 Speaker 2: finding a walking tour and going on one of those 647 00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 2: because you get to see like the town and honestly, 648 00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:54,080 Speaker 2: they're free because they run by, Let's be honest, crazy 649 00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:57,000 Speaker 2: passionate people about the town. They know all of the tips, 650 00:28:57,120 --> 00:28:59,040 Speaker 2: they know all of the good bars, they know all 651 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 2: the really interesting fact they'll point out their cemetery and 652 00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:04,720 Speaker 2: tell you who is in there, Like it's just so interesting. 653 00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:07,320 Speaker 2: And I mean, yes, you probably should be tipping your 654 00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:09,800 Speaker 2: travel guide and whoever has taken you. But if you 655 00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:12,440 Speaker 2: can't afford that, then they're absolutely free. But there are 656 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:14,440 Speaker 2: so many things that you can do that are free 657 00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:16,240 Speaker 2: that means that might free up a bit of that 658 00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:18,920 Speaker 2: daily budget to have a nice at dinner. And at 659 00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:20,680 Speaker 2: that point you can say, well, we want to go 660 00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:25,000 Speaker 2: and do this and this. Jess what day would suit you? Oh, 661 00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:27,320 Speaker 2: I don't really want to go Okay, no worries. What 662 00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:29,680 Speaker 2: day would suit you for Beck and I to go 663 00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:32,360 Speaker 2: off and have that fancy dinner? Is there something like 664 00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:34,280 Speaker 2: that you know you've worked out you want to see 665 00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:37,280 Speaker 2: and you might go just oh, actually I found this 666 00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:41,000 Speaker 2: pub in London that does truviaut and tend doll the Parmers, 667 00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:42,880 Speaker 2: and I'm going to go to that see if i 668 00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 2: can make some new friends and I go bingo. That's 669 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:46,800 Speaker 2: the day Beck and I are going to go off 670 00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:48,960 Speaker 2: because we all have something that we can get up to. 671 00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:52,440 Speaker 2: So I think planning is really important, but also just 672 00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 2: being really honest, like we really want to do these things, 673 00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:57,720 Speaker 2: they're on our list. How can we make those things happen? 674 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:00,880 Speaker 2: When you travel as a group. From my perspective, it 675 00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:04,320 Speaker 2: is about compromise, like it's not my dream holiday. It's 676 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:06,240 Speaker 2: our dream holiday. So it's not going to be one 677 00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:08,680 Speaker 2: hundred percent what Victoria wants or one hundred percent what 678 00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 2: Jess wants. We kind of have to go, well, what 679 00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:13,440 Speaker 2: does this budget look like, how does this work? How 680 00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:16,560 Speaker 2: can we save? And something that you know Jess knows 681 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:19,440 Speaker 2: because I'm unlucky for her. She traveled with me quite 682 00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:19,760 Speaker 2: a bit. 683 00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:20,080 Speaker 4: Now. 684 00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:25,360 Speaker 2: I don't care about breakfast in other countries. I am 685 00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:29,120 Speaker 2: a brunch girly through and through in Australia. Going out 686 00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:31,680 Speaker 2: for breakfast in other countries to me, Jess, what do 687 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 2: I think of it? Not much? Absolutely absolute lost money. 688 00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:40,280 Speaker 2: I'm like, this is for fuel. I'm not enjoying myself 689 00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:43,120 Speaker 2: before ten am. It's not gonna happen. So if there's 690 00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:46,560 Speaker 2: free breakfast buffet, it's fantastic. Am I adding it on 691 00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:48,680 Speaker 2: to my hotel experience though, Jessica? 692 00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:49,440 Speaker 4: Absolutely not. 693 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:51,920 Speaker 2: No, we're not paying for that. I'm not paying for 694 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:55,280 Speaker 2: the privilege of two slices of not even veggie, might 695 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:58,360 Speaker 2: toast because you don't offer that in Europe.

Australian coffee 711 00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:44,120 Speaker 2: is elite, but their bottled coffee is better, and they 712 00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:47,760 Speaker 2: like do bottled Starbucks. So it's like what like cold 713 00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:50,360 Speaker 2: filtered coffee just doesn't drink coffee because it's a psychopath 714 00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:53,240 Speaker 2: but filtered coffee and then like you can buy a creamer. 715 00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:55,800 Speaker 2: So I was making my own coffee is in the 716 00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:59,440 Speaker 2: room and I was Jess.

You use your hands into 734 00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:01,480 Speaker 2: a chick. It's not a chip.

So 744 00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:30,040 Speaker 2: she was eating dry cereal every morning. 745 00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:34,880 Speaker 4: And the victory would make my cereal and make my cereal. 746 00:33:36,280 --> 00:33:39,400 Speaker 2: And I was like breakfast in bed baby that it 747 00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:43,120 Speaker 2: was actually really good. And then America again everything is 748 00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:46,880 Speaker 2: made for convenience. We bore what did we buy those? 749 00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:51,440 Speaker 2: Like uncrustable sandwiches. Love those un crustable sandwiches are my 750 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:52,600 Speaker 2: favorite thing in the entire world. 751 00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:54,240 Speaker 5: Crustable sandwich. 752 00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:57,080 Speaker 2: It is exactly what you think it is. It's not 753 00:33:57,840 --> 00:33:59,240 Speaker 2: a sandwich without a crust. 754 00:33:59,680 --> 00:33:59,960 Speaker 6: Cool. 755 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:02,520 Speaker 2: It's like they made a white bread sandwich with peanut 756 00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:05,320 Speaker 2: butter and jelly, and then they got around cookie cutter 757 00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:06,680 Speaker 2: and cut the middle out. 758 00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:09,719 Speaker 4: And then they gave the great idea and your m 759 00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:11,600 Speaker 4: ands is really good. They do a lot of little 760 00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:15,120 Speaker 4: pre done you can do like a apples and peanut butter, 761 00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:17,960 Speaker 4: or they do these really yummy cuoses that come with 762 00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:19,640 Speaker 4: their own little sauce. Like there's lots of things that 763 00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:22,360 Speaker 4: you can get that will cost you very little money 764 00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:24,480 Speaker 4: that if you stash them in your hotel fridge. 765 00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:26,879 Speaker 2: I feel like this lunch is done leading us into 766 00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:30,840 Speaker 2: another like Victoria and Jess travel hacks, because we, honestly, 767 00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:34,440 Speaker 2: I would think every time we've traveled, when we've done America, 768 00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:37,239 Speaker 2: we've done a lot of Europe, we did the UK, 769 00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:40,440 Speaker 2: we go into America again this year for another conference. 770 00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:42,680 Speaker 2: I would say that the most money we spend on 771 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:45,080 Speaker 2: food is definitely dinner, Like we'll go out for a 772 00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:47,040 Speaker 2: nice dinner and have a nice dinner, but we're very 773 00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:49,439 Speaker 2: likely to eat our breakfast in our rooms before we go, 774 00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:54,719 Speaker 2: carry snacks and maybe go and just do convenience lunches. Yeah, 775 00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:58,040 Speaker 2: like somewhere cheap, like we're not dining out for lunch. 776 00:34:58,080 --> 00:35:00,279 Speaker 2: It's or like is it five bucks? Yep, that's a 777 00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:00,680 Speaker 2: good deal. 778 00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:02,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, you can do it cheap. And so you like 779 00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:05,239 Speaker 4: as to get bring back around to the point like 780 00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:07,919 Speaker 4: you can do it really affordably, I think. But it's 781 00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:10,239 Speaker 4: again it's about finding someone who's happy to do the 782 00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:12,680 Speaker 4: same thing as you. Because if I was like no, no, no, 783 00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:15,120 Speaker 4: like I want to go to the Riots for breakfast 784 00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:17,000 Speaker 4: every morning and have something really fancy, and Victoria's like, 785 00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:20,279 Speaker 4: oh well, I really want my one dollar uncrustable, So 786 00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:23,480 Speaker 4: I do do either we go okay, great, we go 787 00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:26,360 Speaker 4: to our own things, or someone's going to have to 788 00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:27,480 Speaker 4: compromise or it's not true work. 789 00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:29,920 Speaker 2: But it's all about communication, right, And I think it's 790 00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:32,840 Speaker 2: also about the experience that you make it like having 791 00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:34,960 Speaker 2: a quick lunch might not be for you, But the 792 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:36,719 Speaker 2: way we made it was like, let's go to M 793 00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:39,120 Speaker 2: and S or let's go to the supermarket in France, 794 00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:43,080 Speaker 2: we went a board of bread and butter and I think, yeah, literally, 795 00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:45,239 Speaker 2: but we went and had a picnic and like did 796 00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:47,600 Speaker 2: like just little things like that where it's like, well, 797 00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:50,560 Speaker 2: how do we make this into an experience without upgrading 798 00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:53,000 Speaker 2: how much it costs? And I think just talking about 799 00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:55,600 Speaker 2: it and going, oh cool, Well, what area are we 800 00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:58,399 Speaker 2: going to be in? Oh, a quick lunch would make 801 00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:02,319 Speaker 2: sense because we're going from one venue to another, or oh, 802 00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:04,440 Speaker 2: we actually have a couple of hours. I don't want 803 00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:05,960 Speaker 2: to do a long lunch that would be expert. How 804 00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:07,799 Speaker 2: about we do a little picnic. We can go to 805 00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:10,279 Speaker 2: the supermarket and get a tump of homics and some dip. 806 00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:13,400 Speaker 2: Like we can actually make this a very cheap lunch. 807 00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:16,200 Speaker 2: That works out all right. So we did ask the community. 808 00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:19,360 Speaker 2: We said, have you had a similar experience when traveling 809 00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:21,919 Speaker 2: with a friend? Fifty five percent of you said yes, 810 00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:25,680 Speaker 2: And we said, if yes, did it negatively impact your friendship? 811 00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:30,040 Speaker 2: Fifty eight percent said yes. Then we said, do you 812 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:32,279 Speaker 2: think it's okay for the two friends to do things 813 00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:35,640 Speaker 2: without the third friend, and eighty six percent of you 814 00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:38,279 Speaker 2: said yes, absolutely. I just think it needs to be 815 00:36:38,320 --> 00:36:41,839 Speaker 2: well communicated. I don't think it's a bad thing to go, oh, well, Jess, 816 00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:44,360 Speaker 2: I really want to do X, Y and Z, like 817 00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:46,760 Speaker 2: if it's not in line with their values, like why 818 00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:49,440 Speaker 2: are you pushing it on them in every other circumstance 819 00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:52,880 Speaker 2: of your life? That is not acceptable from my perspective. 820 00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:55,520 Speaker 2: Why would it change when you're on holidays? If you feel. 821 00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:58,920 Speaker 5: Loved and cared for and secure in your friendship, and 822 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:01,759 Speaker 5: you make someone feel secure in the friendship, then you 823 00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:02,359 Speaker 5: can go and. 824 00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:03,840 Speaker 2: Do And I think there's the right way to go 825 00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:06,240 Speaker 2: about communicating that. And that's why I go, let's strip 826 00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:08,960 Speaker 2: it back and actually go, well, what's our daily budget 827 00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:11,680 Speaker 2: and yours might be so wildly different. Were oh, that 828 00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:14,080 Speaker 2: is a bit different. So I've got one hundred dollars 829 00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:16,319 Speaker 2: a day and you might have eighty dollars a day. 830 00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:18,960 Speaker 2: That is the difference. And I think that there's a 831 00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:21,120 Speaker 2: really good conversation if we go all the way back 832 00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:23,040 Speaker 2: to the start. Whereas if what if Jess and I 833 00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:25,480 Speaker 2: have identified that you don't want to come beck, and 834 00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:28,080 Speaker 2: so we go oh maybe, Actually, Jess, do you really 835 00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:29,759 Speaker 2: want to go to this restaurant? All right, well, don't 836 00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:31,480 Speaker 2: mention it to Beck because you might feel bad. Then 837 00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:35,120 Speaker 2: it becomes this like secret and it becomes like, oh, 838 00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:37,520 Speaker 2: we really want to go, but we haven't told Beck, 839 00:37:37,640 --> 00:37:39,360 Speaker 2: and Beck, oh we don't know, do you know what 840 00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:41,520 Speaker 2: I mean? It becomes this awkward thing. How about we 841 00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:43,319 Speaker 2: just go all right, well, I really want to go 842 00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:45,520 Speaker 2: to these restaurants or do this thing or these are 843 00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:48,359 Speaker 2: my expectations. And as I said, we can work out 844 00:37:48,360 --> 00:37:50,919 Speaker 2: a time that works for everybody so that no one 845 00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:53,680 Speaker 2: feels left out or no one feels like we're being 846 00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:57,640 Speaker 2: a little bit sneaky. Back to the community, Basically, everybody 847 00:37:57,719 --> 00:38:00,280 Speaker 2: said the same thing. Do what you want is your why. 848 00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:03,160 Speaker 2: Someone else said, don't let someone else's money values override 849 00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:05,239 Speaker 2: your own. If this is important to you, go and 850 00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:09,440 Speaker 2: spend that money. Sis. Someone said, spend some days spreading 851 00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:11,440 Speaker 2: out and doing things that you really want to do. 852 00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:14,880 Speaker 2: It's your holiday, enjoy it. Someone else said, it's actually 853 00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:17,360 Speaker 2: really healthy to not spend twenty four seven with the 854 00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:18,520 Speaker 2: people you're traveling with. 855 00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:20,160 Speaker 4: Great points, that's very true. 856 00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:22,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think we needed some space. 857 00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:25,520 Speaker 4: I think, yeah, well, you just spend so much time 858 00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:27,560 Speaker 4: with somebody and like you can have a lot of fun. 859 00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:31,359 Speaker 4: But you also, I think in our circumstance, particularly like 860 00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:35,120 Speaker 4: we lived together, we were eating together, we were working together, 861 00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:37,560 Speaker 4: like I mean, we live together on holiday not like normally, 862 00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:39,600 Speaker 4: but Jerry, like you spend so we probably should just 863 00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:41,800 Speaker 4: move in at this point, let's be honest. Yeah, but 864 00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:44,560 Speaker 4: no matter how good of a friends you are with somebody, 865 00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:47,960 Speaker 4: I think everybody needs a break at the point, right, 866 00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:50,360 Speaker 4: and doing separate activities is a great way to do that. 867 00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:53,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, someone said, and we did this a couple of times. Actually, 868 00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:56,160 Speaker 2: someone said we would split up for the day and 869 00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:58,279 Speaker 2: then come back for dinner together to share what we've 870 00:38:58,280 --> 00:39:01,000 Speaker 2: gotten up to. I love that. Isn't that cute? I 871 00:39:01,040 --> 00:39:03,200 Speaker 2: think that's really wholesome. Someone said, I paid for some 872 00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:06,360 Speaker 2: of the things I wasn't willing to compromise on. So 873 00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:08,400 Speaker 2: that's kind of good if you want to upgrade it 874 00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:10,920 Speaker 2: and be like beck, I don't want to go out 875 00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:13,480 Speaker 2: for dinner by myself.
