Ok, let me start by saying that I have been awake since 3:30, so this may be a little wacky, but this makes perfect sense to me(sleep deprived).
Someone yesterday said we should start a golf cart swap.... well my plan is more like a golf cart time share.
Here we go:
There are probably about 40-50 people on the dis that are here pretty regular. We each purchase 1 week of time for about $125, you sign up for a specific week, and that is the week that you get to use the golf cart. We sell 50 weeks, so that would be $6250. We get a cart from tungpo for about $5500, we get a trailer for about $750. Now, we take the 51st week and offer it for free to the person that is closest to FTW and is willing to be semi responsible for the cart. (pick it up if someone cancels, take it in for service + they get the trailer to use for the rest of the year).
Now each person is responsible for the cart, you break it you bought it, kinda thing, regular wear and tear is the responsiblity of the group, that leads to week 52, that is the carts maintainance week. We get someone to do a yearly service.
Now next year, you could sell your week, or transfer etc. There would have to be a yearly service fee, maybe $10.
After 2-3 years, we sell the cart and then vote to decide if we want to buy another or just stop and split the proceeds, so lets say we ebay it for $3000 divided by 50 is $60 each back, so that would be $125+$20 service fees - $60 resale = $85 for 2-3 weeks of golf cart rental. Not bad huh?
Now my only problem is that we have to have this thing going by the 25th LOL.
Boy I wish I could sleep, instead of doing really dumb stuff like this.... please ignore the ramblings of a sleep deprived dis'r unless ......
