Remember, Lloyd lies all the time. For all we know, his excuse someone gave him the money to go on an all-expenses holiday is another lie, he knows fine well that people are catching on to his grift so he could be using this as a cover so more people don't catch on to him using their donations for holidays.
He is trying to cover up the fact he is still using donations to go on "introspective" trips and using emotional manipulation to fool his donors.
