“Before the VAT increase, we’d have gone on around five holidays a year, including several long-haul trips,” he says. “In previous years, we’ve been to the US a few times and stayed in New York and travelled around, visiting the Hamptons, but now it’s mostly Europe and maybe one long-haul trip a year instead.”

Moy estimates they have cut their holiday spend from around £40,000 per year to £20,000.

I thought the title was exaggerating things. But no, not only is it verbatim from the article, it’s actually understating things: they’re still going on five holidays, just to europe instead of the fucking hamptons

Rich people really have no taste, do they? They could go practically anywhere, do practically anything, and their ideal vacation spot is a place where they just stand around sniffing their own farts. They do that at home, why even go on holiday at all?
