00:00Woohoo!
00:02Rich holidays
00:02Look at that!
00:04I can't imagine waking up to that every morning!
00:06Are the stuff of dreams
00:08Oh my God!
00:09We've got our own plunge post days!
00:12But can cheap getaways
00:14be just as fun?
00:16I'm having a good time!
00:18I'm not getting in that.
00:19For the first time, wealthy jet-setters
00:22This is the life.
00:23And hard-up holiday-makers
00:25They do look really poor.
00:27Travel together on two wildly different trips
00:32Do you guys drink alcohol?
00:33No.
00:34At all?
00:34No.
00:35To experience each other's idea of the perfect break
00:38The universe is really powerful
00:40If only positivity could pay the bills
00:42Can the rich rough it?
00:44There is no way on God's green earth
00:46that you or me are going in this
00:48Can the less wealthy stomach lavish luxury?
00:51I'm gonna be sick
00:52I hate that you made me touch seafood, how about that?
00:55And at the end
00:56A hundred and thirty-four thousand
00:58You could buy my house and landscape my garden
01:02Will one family's holiday heaven
01:04Give me off, give me off, give me off, give me off
01:06Be another's holiday hell?
01:08Your hair's getting mashed off
01:09Absolutely not
01:10This is possibly going to be the worst holiday I've ever been on
01:19Newcastle Under Lime
01:20Hi!
01:21Come for the weekly catch-up
01:23Home to long-time friends Joe and Lisa
01:26Like chalk and cheese
01:27Yeah, you've got to be different
01:29And have two of me
01:32What's this?
01:33Where's his bucket?
01:34This is bouquet, just remember
01:36They met 25 years ago when Lisa gave Joe her first job in a pub
01:40I remember you couldn't pull a pint
01:42I could
01:43But you kept the customers in
01:44Yeah, what did you give me an hour's training before you went out for the night?
01:48Yeah
01:49Joe is a stay-at-home mum of five kids
01:52And although her husband's warehouse job brings in a wage, money is tight
01:57I would like to get back into work, get the debts paid off
02:01Kiss, kiss
02:02We do find us like running out of food towards the end of the month
02:05So it will be like what can we do out of the freezer sort of thing
02:08Like what can we catch for tea tonight?
02:11Oh, do you want a cup of tea, Anne?
02:12Lisa is a care worker in the community
02:14I think it's very rewarding
02:17Especially when you see the smile on the face at the end of the day
02:20But she earns less than 10 grand a year
02:24It's a continuous struggle
02:25And this day and age with stuff that's expensive
02:28It's really hard
02:30Got your little drink, Doc?
02:32To fund their breaks, they search out the best deals
02:35One old day I went on
02:37Last year it was a bargain
02:40£239
02:41That was for flights, accommodation with a pool
02:45We have to stretch the budget as far as we can
02:48We fill the little empty bottles that you buy from the shop
02:51In your clear bag for the security
02:53We put like vodka or gin in them
02:55And then we'll get pop when we get through the security bit
02:58We take food with us
03:00As for activities
03:01I do like sightseeing
03:03I think if you go into that country
03:05You need to go out and see things
03:08So why go on holiday with a couple of wealthy strangers?
03:11What I'm looking forward to most is meeting new people
03:15And experiencing their life
03:18To see if I am missing out on anything
03:21I do worry that people will not like me
03:23So yeah, I'm worried that they'll think
03:25I'm not walking around with her anywhere
03:2945 miles north in Manchester
03:31Live hotshot best mates Jake Eastwood and Jake Arnold
03:35Otherwise known as Arnie
03:37You know what I'm really excited for? Just to get in the Ferrari
03:39And just go for a spin
03:42We've always had each other's backs
03:43We always will have each other's backs
03:44I think no matter who's in the wrong
03:45Essentially we are brothers from different mothers
03:48But yeah, I love him
03:50It's always a good laugh
03:54Aged just 25
03:56They're ultra ambitious workaholics
03:58I want you to be working one to one with these guys
04:01Jake is a successful currency trader
04:03I now make between 30,000 to 50,000 per month
04:07A data analyst by day
04:09Arnie also moonlights on the markets
04:12I'd sell gold if I were you
04:14With a combined income of more than 600 grand
04:18They splash serious cash on supercars
04:21And a party lifestyle
04:24The most I've ever spent in the night out
04:25Was probably in Ibiza
04:27I did spend 2,900 euros to enter the VIP club
04:30As for holidays
04:32It's got to have the sun, it's got to have fun
04:35That was a good night out
04:36That was one of the best nights of our life in Ibiza
04:38I'm a big believer
04:39Spend it as you earn it
04:41And that's what it's all about
04:42So one time I had a really good month
04:44It was leading up to Christmas
04:46I ended up booking a private jet
04:48And taking my family away
04:50But making this much dosh comes at a cost
04:53Even on their breaks they rarely switch off
04:55I am actually always on my phone
04:57Keeping myself busy
04:59Making sure things are getting done
05:00And the business is running smoothly
05:03So how do they feel about ditching the high life for a bargain break?
05:07I hate sightseeing
05:08It really bores me
05:09When you go on holiday to enjoy yourself
05:11Not to walk around looking at bloody landscapes
05:13I've not been on a budget holiday
05:15However, I do think that you'll be able to see the different side of life
05:19I think on holiday with the strangers
05:21Something a bit
05:22I'm a bit scared about the aspects of them having an opinion
05:25Obviously we are a little bit more privileged than they are
05:27They do budget
05:27We don't
05:29The pairs are spending a week together on two very different trips
05:33A Jake and Arnie style super rich getaway
05:36What have you got there Joe?
05:38The envelope
05:38Oh
05:40Haha
05:40But first a bargain basement holiday
05:44That's the norm for Joe and Lisa
05:46I think one of my worst nightmares is probably going to a hostel
05:49I don't like people
05:50I like my own space
05:51You're going to
05:54Croatia
05:55First off Trego
05:57Oh that sounds good doesn't it
06:00Where you'll be bunking up in a budget hostel
06:04And exploring the sides
06:07What the hell are you lying?
06:08Are you lying?
06:09I don't believe you
06:11Yeah
06:12We're going to a hostel
06:14Yeah
06:15I don't even know where that is
06:16In South East Europe
06:19Just 125 miles across the water from Italy
06:22Is Croatia
06:23A culturally diverse country
06:25Its unspoilt coastline and rich history
06:29Make it a popular alternative destination to the more expensive Italy or France
06:34The pairs will be in the historic town of Tregear
06:38A UNESCO World Heritage Site in the North Dalmatia region
06:42Full to the brim with tourist hotspots
06:45They'll be staying in dormitories in a 20 quid a night hostel
06:49A hit with backpackers on a budget
06:52Instead of a pool or bar
06:54It's a communal kitchen and a DIY breakfast
06:59The fact that we're staying in a hostel though
07:01That is your worst thing that could have happened
07:03It's a nightmare
07:04It's an absolute nightmare
07:07It's day one
07:09Let's get to the airport
07:11Yes
07:11That's right
07:12As Jake and Arnie browse the luxury goods
07:15Joe and Lisa's holiday hacks are already paying off
07:18Oh
07:20That was your wake up call
07:24It's a two and a half hour flight to Croatia
07:27Wow
07:28It looks beautiful
07:29What do you think
07:30I can't believe that's the seat
07:31Look
07:32It's very picturesque
07:33Isn't it
07:33Could be on a yacht
07:35But we're not on a yacht
07:36Shoulda woulda coulda
07:37Nice harbour
07:39Can't wait to explore the hostel to be truthful
07:41No I can't actually
07:41It's gonna be our thing
07:42Making friends with everyone on the hostel
07:44He'll be cooking the tea
07:46I will
07:48There's a reason why hostel and hostage sound the same
07:51You are a prisoner in your own bedroom
07:54The pairs will meet after they've both checked in
07:57Let the holiday begin
07:58And at the hostel there isn't a ball boy in sight
08:01Cheers
08:03So this will be the key for your locker
08:07Lockers?
08:07Yeah, lockers for your bags
08:10There are toilets
08:11You can see it from here
08:12But you have to share with other people
08:15And also you can share the kitchen with other people
08:19Okay
08:20Do you have to share, yes?
08:26VIP holiday makers Jake and Arnie are used to their own penthouse suites
08:30Here we go
08:31Here they'll be bunking up in a no frills dorm
08:39Comparing this to a five star hotel
08:41It's not the exact same
08:43If you had to say a comfort level of one to five
08:46Zero
08:46Drive asleep in a prison
08:48To be fair, I did expect it to be a little bit better
08:51It looks like it's below living standards
08:53The only positive I'm seeing is the sun's out at the minute
08:58Budget besties Joe and Lisa are on familiar ground
09:01Are you excited?
09:02Yes, come on
09:04Oh, that looks mint actually
09:05I'm having top bunk
09:06What's the view like?
09:09Oh, pretty
09:09A little pretty street
09:11Oh, I think this is mint, do you?
09:13Yes
09:13I can't believe this is a budget
09:16This is really good
09:17Yeah
09:17It's lovely
09:18The rooms are clean
09:19There's a lovely kitchen
09:21So we can do some cooking
09:22Oh, freak
09:23All your stuff
09:24Salt
09:25Pepper
09:26That's brilliant
09:54That's brilliant isn't it?
09:56I'm really trading on the side
09:56And I have a IT marketing company
09:59What about you?
10:00What do you do for work?
10:01I'm not working at the minute
10:02I've got a little in who's five
10:03And what do you do?
10:05So I do a bit of care than community
10:07Where do you usually go on holiday?
10:09Because you've both got nice tans
10:11No, I'd be fair
10:12I'd be fair
10:13Yeah
10:13So when you're on holiday
10:14You just really just party
10:16When we go together, yeah
10:17How much do you usually spend on a normal holiday?
10:20I think in a day we spend like four and a half, five grand
10:23But like we do it for the moment
10:25Like the experience
10:26And it was an experience
10:27Yeah
10:28That's what we live for
10:29That's you know
10:30That shocked me to tears honestly
10:33That is a lot of money
10:34We do it all for the moment
10:35I didn't spend that much on my car
10:37It actually got me quite emotional because
10:41I'm 41 now
10:43And I've been in debt since I turned 18
10:46And at the minute my debt is just below 6,000
10:50Which is amazing for me
10:51I've been chipping, chipping away at it
10:52Yeah, it was a bit like
10:55I would have to work
10:58For that kind of money
11:00For about six months
11:04Time to turn the tables
11:06This is your budget
11:07Based on what we usually spend on our holidays
11:11Let's have a look
11:12One hundred
11:13One twenty
11:14One forty
11:14One sixty
11:16One hundred and sixty euros
11:18Yep
11:19That's everything
11:20Food activities
11:21Yeah
11:22Do you think you can do it?
11:23No
11:25That's literally like one or two rounds of drinks in IPFA
11:30On this part of the holiday
11:31Joe and Lisa set the rules
11:34Do you use your phones much when you're on holiday?
11:36Yeah
11:36I'll never off it
11:37I'll run my business from a phone
11:40Well, we want you to try and put your phone away
11:42So you can enjoy the experience of the holiday
11:45I'm on my phone for every single second of the day
11:47I'm not the one for authority or to be controlled or told even what to do
11:52When we're on holiday we try to save money at every turn
11:56And we want to see how you can do it
12:00I just think they've got money to burn
12:03And they're like flashing the cash
12:05So hopefully an experience of a holiday with us
12:08Might, you know, change them
12:11As the group hit their dorms
12:13Jake and Arnie contemplate their fate for the next few days
12:17I'm knackered
12:18I've had enough
12:19I'm not too sure how this is going to go
12:22This is fun
12:23I can't sleep in here
12:25There's something in my hair
12:27I'm bitching
12:29Can you just go sleep?
12:31It's painful
12:33It's absolutely painful, man
12:36Coming up
12:37Don't be like this stuff
12:38We're here now
12:40Things go from bad
12:41To worse
12:42They were expecting
12:44Sands
12:45So they could lie on the beach
12:46And watch the girls go past, I think
12:49Can't stay here, man
12:50It's a thing to pick
12:50Can't stay here
12:58Two budget holiday besties
13:01Are showing two Va Va Boon VIPs
13:05That was a good night out
13:06How to do a budget break
13:08What are we doing here?
13:10In a Croatian hostel
13:12Comparing this to a five-star hotel
13:14It's not the exact same
13:16Do you think you can do it?
13:17No
13:20It's the first morning of the budget holiday
13:23For the boys, sharing a space with strangers
13:26Is a far cry from VIP Ibiza
13:29So my first night sleeping in the hostel
13:31Was a unique experience
13:34Arnold was itching himself all night
13:43What are you doing?
13:46How are you doing?
13:48How are you doing?
13:48There's no room service here
13:51Just a DIY brekkie with fellow travelers
13:54Breakfast was a bit strange
13:56Everybody was eating together
13:58Straight outside my room
13:59How did you guys sleep?
14:01I didn't
14:03He was scratching himself all night
14:07So boys, is there any sightseeing you guys be interested in going to see?
14:10Personally for myself, no
14:11Just because I don't normally do that, you know
14:15But on this holiday
14:17They'll be taking part in the kind of activities Joe and Lisa like
14:21So what's in store?
14:25Historical walking tour of the town
14:28That's not really my thing
14:30I'm not sure, you know, how that's going to go down
14:33Budget beach day
14:34Now that is right up my street
14:36That's something that I want to do
14:39Value food shop
14:40So I'm assuming that we're going to be going to the supermarket
14:44Trying to do a bit of a budget shop
14:46Yeah, that'll be fun
14:47Bargain onto broad
14:49The things that stood out the most were the sort of sightseeing
14:51Because me and Jake hate walking and hate historic monuments
14:54So the activities we're doing
14:55I'm looking forward to all of them, yeah
14:59Tregea has medieval roots
15:01And the rich architecture of the old town
15:03Attracts keen sightseers from all over the world
15:06Hi guys!
15:07Are you here for a walking tour?
15:09I am, I'm Lisa
15:10Daniella, nice to meet you
15:11Joe and Lisa squeeze the most value out of their trips
15:14And a walking tour of the town ticks all the boxes
15:18They'll get to see all the historical hotspots
15:20And the only cost is a tip for the tour guide
15:23Now we're standing in front of the house of Peter Berislavich
15:26He was the vice to our town
15:28If you've got tour guides taking you around the city
15:31You're going to learn way more than when you walk around yourself
15:35Jake and Arnie are more used to all day beach parties on their holidays
15:39I was pretty bored
15:40Personally for me, I'm not a fan of history
15:44And when the trading markets are open
15:46The only place Jake and Arnie want to be
15:48Is online
15:49Get it closed
15:51Come on, put your phones away
15:52What are you doing on your phone?
15:54Rules
15:55Listen, I'm working
15:56I mean, yes, I did get my phone out
15:58I did get sold off
15:59But I checked my phone
16:00I did make £2,100
16:02I'll let you off on that one
16:04I'll sort you out, don't worry
16:06I can't deny the boys making money
16:08If they're making money on the phones
16:10I wouldn't not do it myself
16:12Oh, what are these doing?
16:14I don't know
16:14This looks interesting
16:15Can a Croatian dance display tempt the boys off their devices?
16:20So, these are traditional dancers of drogi
16:26When I joined in, and they saw me joining in, I could see a smile coming on the face and
16:32they were like, oh well, if Lisa's joined in, we're going to have to give this a go
16:36You're going to have to see each nap
16:38Right, one, two, yeah?
16:40I'm used to dancing on holiday, but not like this
16:43I normally have a champagne or alcohol in my hand
16:46I saw his face, it was absolutely hysterical
16:48He was so embarrassed
16:50But Arnie's not getting off lightly either
16:52Oh no, no, no, no, no, no
16:54What do I do? Where do I go?
16:55Which way? Let's go that way
16:57That way
16:58One, two
17:00I move
17:09I think it's something that they've never ever done before and probably will never do again, so, yeah, I think
17:14they really enjoyed it
17:15You made it through!
17:17Yay!
17:20Guys, I'm so proud of you right now
17:22Thank you
17:24Thank you
17:25The morning costs just a 10 euro tip for the tour guide
17:29Thank you very much
17:30Thank you, enjoy your time, why in Croatia?
17:31Thank you
17:31Bye
17:32But all this sightseeing has worked up an appetite
17:35I'm absolutely starved
17:37All I know, I'm 15 stone, I need to eat
17:40You know, we need a meal
17:42I think Lisa might be the only problem
17:44She's got that budget on lockdown
17:48Get off your phones
17:49Joe and Lisa want the boys to learn how to budget for food
17:52So they're giving them 80 euros and a carefully planned shopping list
17:56We've got chicken, pasta, rice
17:59Cheese, hard
18:00Yeah
18:01Bacon, beans
18:02Yeah
18:02It's about getting the best deal
18:04So if you come home with change, then I would be happy
18:09I was worried about it
18:11Because it's like giving, you know, a kid a lot of money for going to a sweet shop
18:16What are we walking into?
18:18Jake and Arnie can easily drop hundreds of pounds on meals out
18:22So first on the list is chicken
18:24It's sandwich meat
18:25That's ham
18:26It's chicken
18:27Today, Lisa is expecting them to stick to her list
18:31Two pound forty
18:33He wanted yogurts, is that essential?
18:36But it's not long before the big spenders break the rules
18:40Excuse me, how much are the ice creams?
18:44I'll have one of them
18:45With plenty of extras thrown in
18:48So it's pretty much nine euros
18:49But if we get it
18:51It's a gift
18:51We just say it's a gift
18:52Yeah
18:53How much change have they got from their 80 euros?
18:5785 euros and four cents
19:00Considering the stuff we've bought, and the beer, and the chocolates, and the ice creams, we've done a good job
19:06100%
19:08Oh, you're back, you've been ages
19:10You thought you were in the pub
19:12And obviously rules are there to be broke, and we can't be told what to do all the time
19:16Did you go over budget?
19:18Very close to budget
19:19I thought you were coming back with change
19:26We did a good job
19:27I do appreciate that they brought some chocolates, but they were nine euros, and you should have saved the nine
19:33euros, and you might have been able to go to the pub with it
19:37Tonight, mum of the group Lisa is taking charge of dinner
19:42Right, let's get a frying pan and we'll cook some sausages
19:45So I hear that Jake's not very good in the kitchen, or I think he might be just a bit
19:50bone idle
19:52Lisa's teaching him how to cook up a cheap pasta, pesto, and sausage dish
19:57So then, why don't you cook it home then?
20:00It's just easier really to eat out
20:02It's only easy to eat out when you've got the money
20:05One lot of takeaways for you could be a week shopping for us
20:09100%
20:10So what kind of car do you drive then?
20:13I've got a Ferrari 488 Spyder
20:16Nice, I've got a C1
20:19What's a C1?
20:21It's a little citron one, yeah
20:24Is it cheap on fuel?
20:25Yeah, really cheap on fuel
20:27So we only have to put in £30 a week
20:30In the Ferrari, it's about 70 quid every two days
20:33At that age, being able to live the life they are
20:37It's nice, but I think they need to rein it in and realise, you know, there could be a rainy
20:42day
20:42And make sure they save some at the same time
20:44We're not practically nice
20:46We're on scraps, man, we're on a budget
20:48It's not quite five star
20:50I'm proud of him
20:51He'll be a chef next
20:56Next on the activity list, a day at the local beach
21:00Gonna have to get our sunglasses on today
21:02Looks like a good
21:04Jake and Arnie are used to five star resorts with private beach access
21:09Here, it's a 15 minute walk to the public one
21:12Oh
21:17You're having me on
21:19No, this is serious actually, because this isn't the beach
21:23It's nothing close to the paradise hotspots they used to
21:27You're having me on here, I'm not staying here
21:30We're used to nice white sand with clear waters
21:33This one didn't even have any sand
21:35I can't stay here, man
21:39Sphinx are picked
21:41There's literally nothing to do
21:42There was nobody there, and it was dead
21:45I'm going home
21:47Don't be like this, Doc
21:49We're here now
21:50We're here now, let's make the most of the day
21:53Do you know how I work this?
21:54It might be their idea of seventh hell
21:56But at least they've got a couple of lilo's
21:58Pumping up, boy, pumping up
22:01And some hostel-made budget snacks
22:04Can you shut up with that?
22:07What's up to do?
22:08Trying to eat my Chris sandwich
22:09I think they were expecting sand, you know, so they could lie on the beach and watch the girls go
22:16past, I think
22:17There isn't a jet ski in sight
22:19I feel free
22:23Just a metal ladder into the sea
22:26This is a holiday
22:34I just forgot about everything that had happened, and I was just chilling, having fun with, I suppose the people
22:38I was with
22:39Go south, south!
22:42Against the odds Jake and Arnie have found joy in the simplest of pleasures
22:47It was probably one of the nicest moments we had as a group
22:54Today it's all changed
22:56The holidaymakers are off on a luxury break
22:59But first, time to toss up the bill for the budget holiday
23:06The total bill for your holiday was £925.11
23:12That's not even a table in a nightclub
23:16I'm super shocked with the cost of the budget holiday
23:18You know, it's really good value, we've still got food left and stuff, so you haven't really gone hungry
23:23Considering the place we were staying, the activities and the budget we had
23:27£925 seemed quite a lot
23:29For Jake and Arnie, the switch up can't come quick enough
23:33Who's ready to see the luxury holiday, and more importantly, see how we live our life when we're on a
23:39holiday?
23:41We're going on a super yacht around Croatia Island
23:44All aboard your very own luxury super yacht
23:48With a full crew catering to your every needs
23:52You're the crew and the cleaner!
23:56The holidaymakers are heading to Split
23:59To board a 170 foot luxury super yacht, the Alpha Mario
24:04Worth £13 million
24:07It has 15 private cabins, a gym, cinema room
24:12And all the water toys they could wish for
24:15And they've got the whole thing to themselves
24:18Perfect for a VIP holiday
24:20The yacht will cruise the Dalmatian coast
24:23Gourmet food and drink will be on tap
24:26And every guest's win will be catered for
24:29No matter how frivolous
24:32I can't actually tell you how excited I am
24:35This is going to ruin every future holiday we're ever getting around
24:38Because it never gave me as good
24:40Coming up
24:41Holy shit
24:42The ladies climb aboard a whole new world of luxury
24:46It just shows what you can get when you've got money
24:49But does it float their boat?
24:51It's going to be very hard for me
25:01Super spenders Jake and Arnie
25:03Trying to eat the great sandwich
25:04Have been on a super tight budget holiday
25:07It weren't what we expected
25:10It's just boring
25:10Now it's their turn to show two money-saving experts
25:14Who's ready to see the luxury holiday?
25:16How to holiday like A-listers
25:18We're going on a super yacht around Grazer Island
25:22I didn't think they'd let me on a super yacht
25:24You're the crew and the cleaner
25:30Goodbye hostel forever
25:32Take me to my yacht
25:33The pairs are on their way to Split
25:36Where they'll board a £13 million super yacht
25:40Can you imagine Joey champagne in one and jet ski in the other?
25:44But for Lisa, old habits die hard
25:47Look what I've got in case I don't like the food
25:50God's sake
25:50What do you mean you don't like the food?
25:52You can have any food you want
25:53Yes, one of them is going to be posh
25:55It won't, you can have whatever you want
25:57On this holiday
26:00Oh my God, it could be one of them
26:02Look at these
26:04The ladies every need will be indulged
26:07Holy shit
26:08It's an emotional wreck here
26:11Is that the one?
26:12Oh my God, that's massive
26:15It's huge
26:16The yacht looked insane, incredible, amazing
26:20I can't think of more words
26:22On board, there's not a crisp sandwich in sight
26:26Welcome to paradise
26:28The 11 person crew will wait on them 24-7
26:32Serving only the highest quality food and drink
26:35Oh God!
26:37Ladies and gentlemen, welcome on the board of Alco Mario
26:39Please help yourself with some snacks, champagne or cocktails
26:43It was massive
26:45To see the crew welcoming you onto the yacht
26:48It was just, you know, I really did then feel like royalty
26:53Cheers guys, happy holidays
26:56It was too good to be true
26:58It looked like a cruise ship
26:59I've honestly never been on a boat this big
27:02Oh!
27:04I felt like I was dreaming
27:06You're gonna make me cry again
27:08This is amazing
27:12Oh dear, what's up?
27:14Is this quite the best part?
27:15Yes, Lisa
27:16What do you think?
27:18Fabulous
27:18It's beautiful
27:20Oh, yeah
27:22It's lovely
27:24It's luxury that I've never seen in my life
27:27And probably never will again
27:28So I'm gonna lap up every second of it
27:31As for the cabins
27:32Look at that
27:34I can't imagine waking up to that every morning
27:37They come with a view only serious money can buy
27:41Oh my god
27:42Is this the bathroom?
27:45What?
27:47Compared to the hostel
27:48It's just one extreme to another
27:51You know, it just shows what you can get when you've got money
27:54It's time to turn it up a notch
27:57And show the girls how to live a real holiday
28:00On the rich side of the holiday
28:02Joe and Lisa will be doing the activities that put the wind in Jake and Arnie's sails
28:06So what's in store?
28:09Holiday activities
28:10Island buggy riding
28:12Oh, last time I did that in Dubai
28:14I flipped two buggies in a day
28:16Jet skiing
28:19I've never ever been on a jet ski
28:20So I'm gonna try just so I can be
28:23But I'm gonna have to get on the back of someone
28:25I'm not driving one
28:26And the luxury shopping slash
28:29Splashing the cash
28:30You've got no budget and you can buy whatever you want
28:32It's Jake and Arnie's holiday
28:34And the captains are ready to take the helm
28:36So rule number one
28:38We're gonna look after you this time
28:41That's a ground rule so we have to stick to it
28:44Ground rule number two
28:45The most important one
28:47Do not worry about money
28:50The whole point of this trip is to spend as much as you can
28:53And live a little
28:54If you want to buy some of it, buy it
28:55It's gonna be very hard for me
28:57I've always been on a tight budget
28:59I get so excited when I finish an holiday
29:02And I know I've got money left
29:03Because the first thing I do is look for another holiday
29:06And that's the deposit
29:07Well with us, this is your time to do whatever you want
29:11Be yourself
29:12I've done my holiday so now on their holiday
29:15I've got to let them be in charge
29:17Which is hard
29:20It's the first morning on the superyacht
29:23And the guests have woken in Havar Bay
29:26I literally don't think I could ever, ever, ever get bored
29:30Of waking up to these views
29:32This is literally how the other half live
29:36Jesus
29:36Look at that
29:37Luxury breakfast eh?
29:39Guests are served breakfast on deck
29:41Where the fresh fruit platters and pastries
29:44Wouldn't look out of place at the Ritz
29:46I brought my own breakfast lads
29:49Some of your pancakes?
29:51Yeah
29:51You've got it all there on a plate
29:53I know but I just come prepared, they're from home
30:00I don't know
30:00Parklets
30:02You're going to have to have a try
30:03I'll just have to warm them up for you
30:04I'm okay, thank you
30:06But thank you for your offer, thank you
30:08Are you enjoying it?
30:09I'm not leaving, I've cleared it with the crew
30:11They're letting me sleep in the cupboard
30:12I'm going to do the ironing for them if I stay behind
30:15It's already sorted
30:17I think having people serving you and stuff
30:19Is a bit weird for us, isn't it?
30:20We've both said it's a bit like, I don't know
30:23It's just not something that we're used to
30:25Yeah, like having breakfast laid out
30:26We're usually just...
30:28I'm usually the one making the breakfast
30:29Yeah
30:29Don't forget lads, I've got some parklets here
30:33Living like an A-lister is proving hard to swallow for Lisa
30:36So what will she make of today's VIP activity?
30:42I'm going to show you how to do it
30:43The boys happily splashed around 200 quid on jet skis
30:47A whole month's car payment for Joe
30:49But on the yacht, there's one for the taking
30:58That's one of the fastest jet skis that I've ever been on
31:01It was literally like going on my Ferrari
31:03Like the same speed
31:05That was the adrenaline kick that I got from it
31:07But Joe has a fear of deep water
31:10I'm scared
31:11And has never set foot on a jet ski
31:14I was terrified
31:15I felt like I was going to be sick
31:21I'm so proud of myself
31:22I'll never forget doing that ever
31:24I loved it
31:26I loved the speed
31:27I've never been able to jet ski before because I couldn't afford it
31:30So it was an experience I know I'll say for
31:33I've seen like more of a fun side of Lisa
31:35And it was nice to let her hair down and doing something that she actually loved doing
31:41The jet skis were enjoyed the most I think by Lisa
31:43She had the best time I think any I've ever seen
31:47That was absolutely barbaric
31:49Never again
31:56As the sun sets
31:57Come on, stir, are you ready?
32:00The party boys are sprucing up for a night out in glamorous Havar Old Town
32:05It's the first time the ladies have ever been on a VIP drinks experience
32:10You know when you see them out, them like cheesy people on the VIP
32:13I think, what a waste of money when you're spending all that
32:15Just forget a bottle of vodka and you can get down the shop for a telly
32:18Yeah
32:18Joe and Lisa are used to home-mix vodka and coke
32:23While Jake and Arnie think nothing of spending thousands on a night out
32:28Got a nice little table
32:30Nice comfy seats
32:31And it is a little bit cold so I'll get you both a blanket
32:33Aww
32:36We're going to go for a champagne to start off with
32:38Yeah, I'll try anything
32:39It's your trip boys
32:41Tonight, the boys are ordering a bottle of the finest champagne at 100 quid a pop
32:47Almost as much as Joe's monthly disposable income
32:50Cheers! Cheers!
32:52A nice rich holiday and making happy memories
32:54Thank you very much
32:56The last time we had champagne probably was Ibiza
32:59They come in on a boat, 20 girls on a boat, dancing, party poppers, everything
33:05It's the quickest we've ever seen about three grand leave out of pocket
33:08Some people think it's a waste of money
33:10It's part of the experience
33:11I suppose it's because you're young and you haven't got bills and things to pay
33:15You haven't got a family, you haven't got kids
33:17So you look at things completely different than me
33:21100%?
33:22You never know what's round the corner, save some for a rainy day
33:25Because it doesn't rain, it pours
33:27It pours
33:29So for me, when we're at home, it seems like you keep going and going
33:34I bet you've heard of the cost of living crisis
33:36I don't know how it's affected you
33:38The fact that I could go and make a cheap tea out of a spag bol or something
33:42But now it costs that much to buy everything
33:44It's like the meals are getting less and less because it's got to spread further
33:49If you had to say, like, your debt, like, what number could you put on it?
33:54It was like 5,000-something pounds
33:56Which is the lowest it's ever been in my life
33:59But it's a night out for you, Pam
34:01It was sad to see what Jo was saying, you know
34:04I didn't realise how tough it actually was or the struggles she was going through
34:07Do you think this experience is making you understand it more or?
34:11I think so, yeah, because growing up my mum worked three jobs to provide for me and my sister
34:14And I understand and appreciate the time she did put in to bring us up
34:19Exactly, she put herself in debt for the sake of making us happy
34:23I think the boys were quite shocked of how bad the situation has been lately
34:28I don't know, I think the cover works well, but now I've had to let that slip, haven't I?
34:37It's day three on the superyacht
34:39Up, five more, four, three
34:44Today it's a no-holds-barred designer shopping trip in Havar
34:49To spend the kind of money the ladies have never had
34:53I don't actually like shopping, we don't like shopping
34:55Because you've never done it with us
34:57Hello, you okay?
34:59I'm just going to try them on
35:00Look how much they are
35:02Like, it's just not a place I'd even think about going in
35:05Like, when I get sunglasses, they just bought off someone walking around the street selling them for a few euros
35:11211 euros
35:12No, so that was just totally weird
35:15They look like you're about to have a right good night
35:17I'm just saying, it's 3.30
35:21Are you getting any, Liz?
35:23Don't know, it's out of my comfort zone, this one
35:25That's what I mean, I feel a bit out of sync, out of place
35:27A pair of glasses is what I would have paid a month's rent
35:31And that's how I always see things
35:33I always think, it's a bill ticked off
35:35So you deserve a treat, Annie, do you agree?
35:38Because she's got light hair, gold
35:41Okay, then, shall we give you that?
35:43Yeah
35:44Lisa and Joe today were really, really, I don't know, really reserved about the prices
35:48They need to start valuing themselves a little bit more
35:51You look like you're ready for a festival
35:54I'd be fair
35:56For once, Lisa throws caution to the wind
35:59And the ladies spend 345 euros of the rich holiday funds
36:04Might put them in a frame in the house so they don't get broken
36:08With an alarm on
36:09Today was a special day
36:11And I'll always remember this holiday
36:13Every time I wear them glasses
36:18Back on the superyacht, the Adriatic island hopping continues
36:2240 miles south of Havar, is the beautiful island of Cortula, where they've moored for the evening
36:29This is the life
36:31Oh, my God
36:31While Joe is resting in her luxury suite
36:35Oh, it's like a full-on massage
36:38Lisa gets more acquainted with the holiday high life
36:41This is amazing
36:44I feel so honoured to be able to indulge in this experience
36:50I've really enjoyed spending time with the boys
36:54A bit of flashbacks over there and I thought it was a hostel
36:58PTSD
37:02Coming up
37:04The rich holiday goes up a gear
37:06I don't know how much it costs but I think it's well worth the money
37:09And the final tally
37:12Rocks the boat
37:14That's just mind-blowing numbers
37:23Do not worry about money
37:25Super rich pals Jake and Arnie
37:27This is the life
37:29Have been showing bargain-loving besties Joe and Lisa
37:33We don't like shopping
37:34What VIP superyachting is all about
37:37Loved it
37:38That's absolutely barbaric
37:42It's the final day of the rich holiday
37:44And the pairs are exploring Cortula
37:47I'm dead excited
37:48But not with a free walking tour
37:51How'd you get in?
37:52The boys love their fast cars
37:54And will be zooming around the island on buggies
37:57But at a cost of 360 euros
38:00It's what Joe spends on household bills for a whole month
38:04This is so more up my street than sightseeing
38:06It's full of adrenaline, action-packed, off-roading
38:10Level-headed Lisa is high on the high life
38:16And today she's taking full control
38:20Oh fuck, it's come out of my eyes
38:24The Ferrari man was a bit scared of getting behind the wheel
38:26I shoot him out to drive properly, yeah
38:35The thrill of driving around on a buggy in the mountains of Croatia
38:38It filled a hole that I needed to fill
38:44It was so much fun
38:46I loved it
38:51I really loved it
38:52To the hills
38:55The need for speed
38:56I think it's well worth the money
39:02The sun is setting on the final evening of the holiday
39:06Yeah, look at it over there
39:08Oh, that's lovely
39:10Oh, that is nice
39:11Tomorrow it's back to reality
39:14But for tonight
39:15The private chef is laying on a gourmet grill
39:18And it's a chance for the pairs to reflect
39:22With the luxury holiday experience
39:24Have you enjoyed it?
39:26I've absolutely loved it
39:28Yeah
39:28Yeah
39:29It is the first time I've relaxed
39:31I usually always worry about
39:32Work and my old ladies and everything
39:35The shopping experience was
39:39Yeah
39:40It was a bit out of my league
39:42But, you know, you pushed me
39:44To treat myself
39:45And at least I've got something now
39:47That I won't, you know, I'll never forget
39:48Yeah
39:48But I worked out as well
39:50That mine and Joe's glasses
39:53Would have been a weekend Tenerife
39:56Yeah, all inclusive
39:57All inclusive for both of us
39:59So she's flogging hers tomorrow, mate
40:01I'm not
40:03I'm not
40:03What do you think you've learnt then
40:05From the old experience?
40:08My mum don't live with me at home
40:10She's moved abroad
40:11So I feel like I've been taught
40:13What love is from, like, a mother again
40:15And I just want to say thank you for that
40:17Because I've just enjoyed it
40:20I'm holding it in myself, don't worry
40:22Aw
40:24I think
40:25I've sort of, over the last week
40:27I've actually sort of understood the value of money
40:29I think you've just, like, lost away a bit with it
40:32You never thought that we'd, erm, survive on that budget, did you?
40:36No
40:37And I've secretly actually really didn't enjoy it
40:39I thought you did
40:40The hostel wasn't, like, I'd still, I would never go to a hostel
40:43We still had fun, didn't we, in the same place
40:44Yeah, it's about the people you're with
40:45I've become really fond of you, I think you're really, really good people
40:48If I had, like, a big family event or something
40:51And I would want you to there
40:52Like, that's how much of an impression you've left on me
40:56100%, I think, you know, we both will
40:58Yeah, of course you can
40:59Try not to pull down my street in the Ferrari
41:00Though you might get the wheels nicked
41:05It's been a once-in-a-lifetime trip on the superyacht
41:08With world-class food and drink
41:10Water sports
41:12And a crew to attend to every need
41:14The £925 budget break seems a world away
41:18So, how much is the luxury holiday coming at?
41:22So, the total cost of this holiday is
41:25A hundred and thirty-four thousand
41:28Nine hundred and thirty-six pounds
41:33Jesus!
41:34You can buy a house for that
41:35You could buy my house and landscape my garden for that
41:39That's crazy, who pays that money for a holiday?
41:43It was bloody stupid in here
41:44LAUGHTER
41:46I don't want to sound ungrateful
41:49But if it was a choice of a few days in here
41:51I'd buy my house
41:53You need to buy a house?
41:54Yeah, that's just mind-blowing numbers
41:58I feel sick inside, actually
42:00Because it's like, you see the end bit, 936
42:03That's what we spent on our first holiday all together
42:05And we still had fun
42:07Yeah
42:08But I've loved the experience
42:09It's been brilliant
42:11I can't get my head around it
42:16It's time for the pairs to say goodbye to the superyacht
42:19And each other
42:20Thank you
42:21Aw, it was lovely
42:24I've tidied the room for you
42:26I'm gonna miss you, we've got you on Insta
42:28Before they part ways
42:30The friends are swapping goodbye gifts
42:32It doesn't cost as much as you'd probably spend on souvenirs
42:36But we liked it
42:37Four that counts
42:37And we hope you do too
42:38Oh
42:39So there's one each in there for you
42:41So when you have a coffee, you can think of us
42:43That's really sweet
42:45So Lisa, one thing I said to Arnie
42:47Is your new shed
42:48So we wanna put quite a bit of money to that
42:51And try and help you get it done
42:55Thank you
42:57So Joe, obviously you did open up about your debt situation
43:00Obviously it really hit home to me
43:02So me and Jake are gonna
43:04Pay a little bit of your debt or so
43:05You help?
43:11You don't have to do that
43:13Thank you
43:14We wanna help?
43:15Is that I give you cuddles?
43:17Yeah
43:19Come here
43:20We'll get it started
43:21Thank you
43:24I just don't know what to say to you
43:26Honestly
43:27I only wanted a French magnet
43:32Back in the UK
43:33The friends are reflecting on their two very different holidays
43:36It was absolutely amazing
43:38Not something I ever thought I'd do
43:40And not something I'll ever do again
43:42The whole experience is a better reality check for me
43:45Obviously the fortunate position I'm in currently at such a young age
43:48I can afford to do these nice things
43:49Obviously some people don't have the privilege of that
43:51If I had to say what have I learnt from it
43:54It's to appreciate my own life a bit more
43:57I get very carried away in life
43:59And it can almost come to the point where you forget where you actually are
44:04Does money buy you happiness?
44:07I don't think so
44:08Does money buy you a happier holiday?
44:12I'd definitely say not
44:14Best thing I've ever done in my life
44:16And I think if I died tomorrow
44:18I would die happy
44:19No bucket list left
44:20That is it
44:21I am complete
44:25Next time
44:26Welcome to the chaos
44:27Got the teeth and everything in it
44:29There is no way on God's green earth that you or me are going in this
44:33This is definitely how the other half left
44:35Oh my god
44:36The universe is really powerful
44:38If any positivity could pay the bills
44:40It's time to leave
44:41Wondering why I've done this
44:43And can I go home?
44:45Wondering why I've done this
44:48With no other half right
44:50I just found my eyes
44:50It was no way on
44:57This is really how you see
44:58It's amazing
44:59I don't know
45:01You always have to know
45:01This is what we have
