Degen

Quick question for the $DEGEN fam — is business class a scam or a legit flex? 🧐 Would you ever drop $5k on an 8-hour roundtrip flight? And how much should someone earn per year to justify that? Give me your very opinionated answer — no fence-sitting, top hat gang.

Scenario: 10 hour roundtrip flight.

Ticket: $5,000.
Perks: Slightly wider chair, champagne at altitude, and the ability to judge people walking past you.

Worth it? Or nah?

I'd say it depends on the cost of an economy seat. If the price difference is nominal, I'd consider it (assuming I had the money to spare). But if it's significant, I'd rather have the money to spend on the trip!

Economy is $1k, that’s $4k in your pocket — you could post up at the Ritz, order room service like royalty, and still come out ahead 😂 Definitely rather ball out at the destination than just on the flight.
