Welcome to How to Money.

I'm Joel.

And I am Matt.

And today we're talking stellar staycations, devilish destination fees, and pay cut gut punch.

Thank you. That's right, buddy. This is our Friday flight. We're going to talk about the most pressing headlines and how they specifically pertain to your wallet, to your money. Should we go ahead and kick things off? Oh, can I say one thing? Yeah. I thought you wanted to talk about Trump's address. I do. We got to get to that. Oh, do you? Yeah. But just briefly, just briefly, because I think it leads into something we're going to talk about. But my, you've been wearing Zeni glasses for a long

time. Zenioptical.com. It's something we haven't talked about in a long time on the show, though. So if anybody's like, needs a new pair of glasses and hasn't. I just took them off, looking at them right now. I think I've had this pair for like three years. There you go. This literal pair of glasses. And they probably cost you, what, $25?

I always get the lens upgrades.

Okay.

So that it's less, so it's more resistant to oil and glare, things like that. Gotcha. I don't know if it's worth it or not, to be honest. But it's probably 50 bucks then, right? For a pair of them. Yeah, I don't know, like 30 something. These are like $24 frames with the upgrades. Maybe it's like upper 30s, low 40s, something like that.

I mean, I still, so I had to get. Okay. These are like $24 frames with the upgrades. Maybe it's like upper 30s, low 40s, something like that.

I mean, I still, so I had to get new glasses.

Because these are premium.

That's why I got my premium vision over here. So my daughter needs glasses as it turns out. Oh, no way. Yeah. So my middle child. How'd you all figure that out? Was she, because she's like, oh, the vision's boring.

I get headaches sometimes.

We're like classic.

Classic means you probably, you probably need some.

But she's like squitting.

It's hard to see what's getting well it's not like a, don't use chalkboards anymore. It's all overhead projectors or the smart boards. Oh my gosh. A lot of smart boards. Yeah. And so we, so we were like, all right, let's go get your eyes tested. And it's not like an extreme prescription. It's a small one. But it's like, all right, well, okay, we got to get you some glasses.

And Emily's like, well, let's look at Warby Parker at $95. I'm like, yeah, that's good. They all look like pretty adulty, all the frames, though, even for the ones for kids. Yeah, you look very academic. Yeah. Like even as a kid, if you have Warby Parker's, it's like, oh, you subscribe to the Times.

Right.
