This is deeper in the din with dangerous d The
wedding season is coming up. What's it going to cost you? Now,
we're not talking about the bride and the groom and
their family. What is costing them? What is it going
to cost you to go to that wedding? You know,
people love to go to weddings, people hate them, but
for everyone experiences pause over how much they cost. So,
(00:22):
according to one report, the average single person should expect
to spend about four hundred and sixty one dollars to
attend a wedding. For a couple, it's about five hundred
and fifty. That's because you need a tire for two people,
you need to split the travel, hotel, A gift on average,
men's attire three hundred and thirty three dollars, mostly for
nice shoes. Women's outfits about three hundred and fourteen dollars.
(00:43):
The estimate for travel is about eighty dollars, combinations one
hundred and forty five. In the wedding gift about one
hundred and fifty. Of course, if you're being invited to
multiple weddings, you don't need new clothes for each one,
but the average woman can get three weddings. Out of
a single outfit, the average man can get five out
of his American adult attends two weddings per year. It's
even more expensive if you're in the wedding. A single
(01:05):
member of the bride and groom party can expect to
spend about twenty one hundred and thirty seven dollars to
attend both the wedding, bachelor or bachelorette party, and of
course you pay for the dress or the talks in
your wedding should expect to spend about two hundred and
thirty two dollars per guest. The average wedding one hundred
and fifteen guests, puts the total at twenty six thousand dollars,

ouch deeper in the two You know. Nobody loves changing
their diet or finally getting serious about exercising, But there
are some things you can do to make a noticeable difference,
even little things that can make changes in your life.
Is there something in your life that you wish you
would have started earlier? They asked the internet this question,
What improved your quality of life so much you wish
(01:47):
you would have done it sooner. Some of the most
popular responses include giving your eyes a break. Now, this
is something that I haven't done and I should do.
Spend a lot of time looking at screens, which I do.
They say, give your eyes a rest about every thirty
minutes on something about twenty feet away. It helps with eyestrain,
can cause headaches, tiredness, and even depression. Replacing a cheap
office chair with something that actually offers lumbar support other
(02:10):
things that have improved people's life that they wish it
would have done earlier. Understanding that working with somebody smarter
than you as a privilege and an opportunity to learn
and hone your skills, not a threat. Buying blackout curtains
can be life changing. Oh for sure, I have those,
and man, I like them. Moving out of your hometown,
quitting a toxic job, learning, and to say I don't
know instead of pretending you know what somebody's talking about.
(02:33):
People are excited when they share what they know. It
simply can lead to a lot of professional and social growth.
Walking every day gives you better sleep, better mood, and
more energy. Deleting social media, or at least moving off
of it and off your phone to a secondary device
so you can escape. Somebody said when my kid comes
home from school, I put my phone in the drawing,
don't touch it again until they go to bed, starting
(02:54):
a band, getting a day during COVID. Okay, I still
don't think I would do that, buying an automatic nasal
rinse kit, giving up unfolding underwear. I wish I would
have won Powerball or Mega Millions a lot earlier. Well,
I still haven't yet, but I still would have liked
to have done it earlier. I need again for another
episode of Deeper in the Den with dangerous Daved right here.
