Sorry, but that is nonsense and far too general. As much as a good proportion will not know their financial status, many will, be that those in good jobs or those that are retired. Even for those who are nervous of the future, putting a deposit on an holiday which doesn’t have to be paid for for a long time (and can be cancelled before final payment) would be a welcome boost to their outlook and would be low risk.
I would say foolhardy should be reserved for those who will fully spend knowing they will not be able to afford it....
