I don’t think I’m so fast to judge. We don’t know if he or someone else, such as his work, is paying for the travel. For years, I traveled internationally first class, stayed in the best hotel suites, and ate at great restaurants. I didn’t pay a dime. (And, didn’t have much more than that to my name at the time!) Everything was paid by expense account, which in turn was paid by the clients.
As far as the ‘Out of Work’ thing, try singing “Get a Job” to the millions and millions on the unemployment lines. Or, he could just live on $1200 and ride it out!
