The FH and I are trying to figure out this whole education vs. vacation issue right now.
I think it's a completely individual thing. Neither of us have been on an out-of-province/country vacation in 4 years. I have been working like a dog the entire time, and I just returned to school part-time for a Master's degree. He will be writing his Engineering exams this spring.
So, yes, I would blow $7K on vacations this year, instead of saving for tuition. It sounds irresponsible, but we do have a continuing education/tuition fund. I'm not going to blow the entire $7K in one shot, but it would be nice to go to the Caribbean (it's -9 degrees Celsius right now...the warmest it's been all week!). Plus throw in a couple of camping trips and we're pretty much done with the money.

all the public ones are non-profit organizations and supported through taxes, etc.

I don't know DebbieL... sometimes when I look at all of the charges that I get from U of T, I wonder about the whole 'non-profit' thing. I paid $100 for a course kit/course book and they didn't even bind it!
