Re: Week 7 Orlando- FREE
here is the way I see it, and to me it is simple math. Please let me know if i am missing something.
Chris is giving the unit away, so there is no up front cost. I vacation in florida once a year (sometimes skipping a year). To get 2 dogcrap hotel rooms (I am a family of five) one mile from disney would cost me at least $1,500 for seven nights. The maintanence and date transfer fee (so I can go during the summer and not week 7) is under $750.00 a year. So, if my math is correct, even if I only used it every other year I am still saving money and staying in a very nice two bedroom condo with 14 pools and hottubs. I also know plenty of peeps who would be more then happy to pay the $750 in costs to use it if i am not.
So in summary, I can pay $1,500 for two hotel rooms or $750 for a sweet place to stay for a week. I am NOT looking at this as an investment being that I am not buying the unit upfront, but rather locking in my vacation price for years to come. Not to mention I can join RCI and go anyplace in the world for a slight fee.
As far as airfare, I drive down every year in the burb. And for food and other expenses, I would be paying that anyway. as a matter of fact, food is cheaper because I will have a full kitched to utilize.
If I am missing something, please let me know.
PS: Chris I will text my info to you today.
and thank you again.
