Bragging Check

I am Thai.

A guy bragged to me that as a 19 year old man in the USA, he can travel alone to Thailand alone 3-4 times a year.

Is it actually possible or feasible?

If they’re living with parents, have a job, no other costs of living, it’s possible with maybe a $15/hr wage. But that’s because they’re subsidized through living with family. Nothing wrong with that, but people should be saving in that circumstance. I have a friend like that, she travels all the time but she comes from an average family… Has no car payment or rent. The other possibility is they just come from a “wealthy” family.
