<prompt> Human: Retirement, having a stress free life, and spending time with loved ones is often why people take an interest in ensuring they are being responsible and thinking critically with their personal finance decisions. Taking vacations is one way to spend our time and invest in our wellbeing.I always see people talk about saving money or spending money on big ticket itemslife events retirement, house, car, college, etc. and no one really ever seems to talk about spending money on their free time or vacation.How much do you spend on vacations per year and how do you personally decide on this amount? For someone that is younger in their mid-20s such as myself do you generally recommended spending money on traveling now, or waiting until later in life. i.e. once debts are paid off student loans, mortgage, etc. and a strong retirement account funded?  <response>: Depends entirely on your circumstances and priorities.
