We bought into BCV a few years ago and we are happy with our 150 points. A part of me wanted to buy more, thank goodness DH held me back. The 150 is really all we need. We want to go other places on vacations and don't want to think we have to go to Disney every year (although since buying we have gone every year).
The problem I see is that the cost per point has gone up a lot since I bought. I don't think I would feel the same about buying at the current prices as I did when we bought. On the other hand, I didn't know about resells and if I were to buy now I would look at resales since they are less expensive than Disney prices.
As for saving money, I think we will over time, but we use studios and have breakfast and night time snacks in our rooms every day. Also, we only financed for 1 year, so we didn't pay a lot of interest. I wouldn't buy if I had to pay it off over several years.
I don't think DVC is for everyone. I also think 150 points is quite enough for families of 4 or less. The 1-2 bedrooms are great (we have tried them), but you can get two trips in a studios for what you would get with the larger units. Also, we don't stay on weekends (usually) because the points more than double! So for us a Sun-Thurs (leaving Fri) trip is what we call a week at WDW. It is enough for us.
Good Luck in your decision.
