I'm sending my 8 and 5 year old to Venezuela to work in a Nike factory. That should earn us another five to ten points a year.

Do they have room for a 11, 9, and 7 year old? If they are working , I will need less points. The two oldest don't even like the MK. I am convinced they were switched at birth. They can't possibly be mine.

Back on topic.....
We started with 200, but DH is looking at an add-on so he can take his family with us. Yea, in-laws...

CVW,
Thanks for the laugh - very funny

Bill,
We bought 150 points to use for long weekends. We were very happy with that number right up until the point where we weren't But it's not our fault! First, my eldest got older (what's up with that?!) and we had to work around the school calendar, so we had to have more points. Then we decided that we should check out VB (gotta be able to stay there sometime), and then they opened up BCV (gotta have some points there, right?), so we had to have more points. So now we are at 300, but we are definitely stopping there. Yeah, definitely.

I'm sure you'll be just fine though!

Seriously, for the first couple of years, we made those 150 points work fine, taking 3-4 long weekends each year, and sometimes supplementing with a cash reservation.

My dw and I have 150 points also, we can take a week every year in a studio, this is great, we have no kids, this is also great, they are married and as much as they beg us to take them , we just say sorry, we only have 150 points. lol

We have a 300pt contract shared with FIL, so 150 for each couple. We thought 150 would be fine for us......oh boy....thank goodness FIL doesn't go every year and lets us use "his" points. In fact, he didn't even like "the rat" until he stepped foot into the WL (where we had bought sight unseen). He just got back last week from his 3rd trip on points and called us to talk about adding more points once we pay off the initial contract in March '06!!!!!!
