Episode Details

Learn how high earners can budget for vacations, spend on what they love, and prioritize experiences while they still can.

Host Andrew Giancola and NerdWallet Wealth Partners CEO Ryan Sterling explore how high earners can approach vacation spending with intention. They cover how to set a vacation budget using a percentage of your income, the financial boxes worth checking before you book, and how to balance a generous travel budget with goals like early retirement.

Then, Andrew and Ryan tier-rank a list of vacation upgrades — from business class and TSA PreCheck to skip-the-line passes and ocean view rooms — based on which are worth paying for.
