Not sure if I’ve gone crazy

I can’t believe how close 2042 is.

16-17 years ago I was completely broke, working at a summer camp (best job ever). Now I have a professional degree, a paid off house, a spouse, a pet, 2 kids, a "real job" where people recognize it as a profession even, and I can't even believe I worked a job for room and board + $10/week (how did I ever pay my health insurance?!).

A lot can happen in 16 to 17 years, including a lot of great vacation memories.

I agree. I still hate how close it is. We own at 2 of the 2042 resorts and I don’t want to let them go.
I also don’t want to be as old as I’ll be in 2042.

My wife is about ready to quit her job and reminiscing about her favorite job ever (Michael's as an art teacher where she got paid a little over minimum wage)

Im like hell no you have a wife and three babies now. Me, BLT, AKV, SSR and we have Poly on the way due March 2026

Agreed. I was all excited to someday use points out there, but now I'd rather just save my points and book offsite. They really need to look at the value proposition of Disneyland Hotel and Grand Californian. I have no idea who would want to own at DLH right now.

VGC and VDH owner here…. happy to own at both!

The alternative is worse.

For real. People constantly tell me how bad it is to get old. My stock answer is "I hear it beats the alternative?"
