And another thing, why would she invite her husband if they were financially unstable? The whole thread is full of contradictions.
Does not compute

Okay, I budgeted for her mother to come. I didn't budget for a 4th body, which means a bigger car, another hotel room, etc etc etc.
Oh yeah, Mr. SAS. I'm sure you're a real baller.
Oh, so you have a job paying you good money and you can do whatever you want, high roller and all that bullsheit?
But you can't spend 675.
Are you working at McDonalds?
675 DOLLARS is pocket change. I've probably lost more than that on one night out and twice that paying for the night out, three times that paying for the aftermath.
Because she's not the sharpest tool in the shed.
Again, it's not just the airfare here.
I have the money, heck, I bet I have a lot more money in my checking than a lot of the people here do right now.
But there is a certain point where I have to draw the line.
All of the sudden this trip went from being $1000 including all 3 airfares, and rooms to being closer to $2000.
Are they divorced? Why would the husband need a different room?
So it went from being 675 to 2K all of a sudden?
Keep track of what you are saying, high roller, it will make your lying easier.
Great pal, I just took her to Hawaii.
Frankly, I don't give two shit what you spend on a night out, chances are you're as big of a f*ggot in person as you are on the internet, and that 675 was spent on hookers because you can't pick up chicks.
Money doesn't make up for being a prick.
Wait a minute. What you are saying is: You want your girlfriend's mother to come with you on vacation?
Because originally I planned on getting a single room with two king size beds.
If the dad is coming I'll get another room for the parents.
Sounds like someone has something to prove.
If you had any ability to read, I was talking about the total cost of the trip this time, not just the airfare.
Maybe your ego has eaten away at your intelligence.
The deal here is that you were spouting off, you have a job that enables you to do whatever you want and your family is rich but you can't pay 675 if you need to?
I'm like this in real life too, yeah, it's not like your made up internet persona, i really am as big of an arsehole and just as honest and forthcoming in real life.
In my line of work you have to be.
Why is anohter room needed?
Because something about sleeping in the same room as my girlfriend's dad is a bit weird.
$2,000 on a 4 day weekend when I'm 23 years old is a bit over that line, regardless of how much money I make, there's a thing called common sense.
You are inviting your gf's mom on a trip with you but sleeping in the same room as the dad is where it gets weird?
I have the money, heck, I bet I have a lot more money in my checking than a lot of the people here do right now.
Yes, my family is rich, so rich that our boat made the cover of pacific yachting last month.
Dude, read above.
My girlfriend sees her mother once, maybe twice a year. Her parents live on the other side of the continent from us.
I could think of no better gift for my girlfriend than to see her mother in a place that she's always wanted to go.
In a manner of speaking me bringing her mom to her is the gift, because I know in Napa they would have a ton of fun together.
While 2k is a lot of money for one person, 2k for a 4 day weekend for 4 people is actually pretty damn good deal. I just came back from a 3 day snowboarding trip[nyc-> park city, ut] and that trip cost me roughly $800-900 for myself and I'm not ashamed to say I ain't rich. It's respectable for someone who's broke to offer minor financial help but for someone who claims they are rich, it's somewhat of an insult... akin to bill gates writing a check for $100 to charity.
You should expect the woman's husband to come. On what planet do you invite 1/2 of a couple to come with you?
You invite, and pay for everybody, or just drop the whole thing. If money's tight for them, they don't have $700 to throw away on a trip.
