I couldn't believe it but I got to say hi to the family this evening at Ohana's. I have followed so many trip reports over the years but I never thought I would get a chance to say hi. How weird is it to see people you don't even know and know them right off. Dawn had her back to me and...

Of course I don't want to know the exact address, but are you North, South, East, or West of WDW? My wife wants us to possible purchase a place in "Celebration, FL". Did you guys go for an area like that or something further out? How's the driving around where you live? Are there roads that...

So is this it for the Disney Intern program for you? Seems like it went by so fast! I guess it's time to turn another page... We were down in July and I wanted so badly to come say "Hi!". I mean while I don't post much, I have pretty much been following all of your Disney adventures (and...

I'm not sorry about the breakup! I didn't like the guy but then I'm an over protective father... :) Y-ASK

I'm glad that you're feeling better, how's school going? Y-ASK

I kind of had a feeling, so can I say that I was first when I suggested a new thread title for this trip report on your last trip report :)? Congrats, You See, some days are better than others! ;) Y-ASK

Well... Some days are better than others ;) but any day in Disney beats being at work :)!!! Y-ASK

Ok, so I don't really know you guys and I'm only guessing from how great that one particular day was said to have been but my 1st thought for the next TR title maybe be something like this: "!!!When he got down on one knee, I thought it was to just tie his shoe... !!!" Naahhh! Probably to...

I hope you guys have a wonderful trip. It's been really great reading all about your last trip and all the stuff that has happened since. We leave on Sept. 21st so we can attend the Halloween Party and reading your stories just puts us there with you. Y-ASK

They already are in the resale market. They ROFR and then re-package and re-sell those points. As far as I know, they only take the points from an owner after they have to foreclose because of non-payment of a loan or maintenance fees. Y-ASK

Probably good advice. Everyone needs to look at their own situation before they buy a luxuary item like a timeshare. If you go in with your eyes wide open then none of this should be a surprise. There's plenty of history with other Timeshare vendors where it's easy to see the writing on the...

Hope that doesn't happen in July too. We've got a reservation in the middle of the month... Y-ASK

I did not stay in one but I can tell that we got up late, got to the beach late, and got very lucky to be able to grab a couple of chairs with a little bit of shade. Some people were leaving or we would have not gotton a place to sit at all. Worked out great for us but there were other people...

I've got the Toy Story one... I've had a few people say good commenst about the card when I've used it. Y-ASK

That's the part that has to do with Risk. Everyone's situation is different. For some the risk would be too much, for others it's hardly any risk at all so for this conversation let's just say there's risk and everyone should know the risk for their own personal situation. This is probably...

I agee totally! The ideal way is to pay cash. Yet some people make a lot of money and like that instant gratification. They don't want to wait two years to save up for the purchase. They want to use it now. When I suggest a 401K Loan I always hope that people are smart enough to weigh the...

True, you can't make someone do the right thing but I look at it like any other loan I may have. It's got to be paid back and normally that's made easy by auto-payroll withdrawals. The main consideration in my opinion is risk and I'm not about to risk my house by taking an HELOC but if I were...

I've always enjoyed a good 401k Loan debate so please explain why. And please don't use the same old excuse that if you lose your job you have to either pay the entire sum back or treat it as an early withdrawal with all the penalties. Those should be throughly understood before you take the...

It's very similar to what Marriott did quite a few years ago. If you bought resale they took away the ability to trade your timeshare week in for Marriott points that could be used at regular Marriott hotels. They recently made an even bigger move last summer when they introduced a points...

Very well written but I will refrain from responding to the poster you are referenceing for fear of writing something that would put me in the timeout chair. Y-ASK
