Has anyone ever figured out how many points it would take to live at WDW permanently?

Playing with the online interactive points calendar:

Only 48,477 points are needed to book a BLT MK view GV for a year.

A Jambo value studio would be 4,309.

I think there's rules against staying too long.

If I remember right, you can only own 6,000 points. And you would have to switch resorts but I can't remember how long you can stay at one place. 6 weeks? Is that right? But according to your math 6,000 would get you a year-round home somewhere. Moving every 6 weeks wouldn't be bad, and the cost per use of that AP would really go down. But I think my weight would really go up!

 

[DVCconvert]

I don't think you have to move every 6 weeks, but the longest single reservation I'm told is 30 days. Then, in theory, you'd have to check out and check back in again. But you wouldn't have to move as you could link multiple ressies. As to any point limit there really isn't one in the sense that you can use any titling you want - so you can set up trusts etc.

WOW! I'm in awe of all of the 1000+ club members. Hope to join the group someday!

We just did a 100 point add on at AKV. Please change us to 1160 points.

Thank you

 

[wl1117]

Maybe someday! We're only halfway there at 500 points.

 

[mommacat56]

My family is at 1110! Woo hoo!

 

[SamSam]

We're working at joining the club, but only at 710 so far. We look at it as retirement investment, so we can spend a couple of months there once we're retired.

 

[JWG]

You all amaze me. We're 375, so not even half-way.

 

[Yankeemouse]

Sam, we love the idea of spending a good chunk of our winter at DVC when we retire.. would love to hear more about how people are planning to use these points for long term stays / retirement, anyone?

I must say i am in awe of the 1000 point club. This thread started in 2005 and 6 years later still seems to be going strong.

I thought there was a recession in this country but i guess not for all. I bought during the recession and i am relatively new to the DVC but 1000 points i dont know what i would do with myself.

God Bless all of you

We are a little over 1/2 way there with 575 but not sure if and when we will get there. I think I can convince DH once our youngest (16) is off to college and we have more flexibility. Problem for us if we have more points I can see us going for the GV thus making our stays limited!
