I totally agree. Everyone has their own interests and pleasures in life.

However, I do understand what some of the more cautious FTers are trying to say. Like most things that bring pleasure in life, one can become addicted to them very easily. It is sometimes very tempting to buy tickets for flights that are above ones realistic budget. I'm sure there are many people here who have paid a little (or a lot!) more for flights when they really shouldn't have. That said, you could say the same for other things, like a car or concert tickets for example.
