    Financially ready for a Safari?

    No respondent financed their safari or played an equivalent shell game This part I enjoyed the most . It’s also probably why these people can enjoy nicer things and the “splurge” of safaris . I see so many people put wants on credit then complain they can’t get ahead .

    I’m planning for my 40th birthday . Started putting aside some of every check into a safari fund I have a budget in mind and when I get about halfway I’ll book my trip and that should give me a year or more to finish saving for the shipping and taxidermy and maybe an extra animal or teo
