>I don't think extravagantly so, but I have worked in software for a couple decades and saved a lot. Well then you are well-off. Most people can't swing 5 nights in a high CoL city without months and months of saving. Offering to pay for someone to stay in a hotel creates an extremely bad dynamic when the receiver couldn't easily afford that on their own. >he idea that it's usually a cheaper option to pay for the occasional hotel than to specifically purchase a larger house with rooms you rarely use. Yep, but the important distinction is that a hotel room isn't equivalent because it's a very easily measurable monetary burden on the host.
