So.. I was looking this new lottery - Millionaire for Life -- the top prize is a million bucks a year for 25 years.
That got me thinking.. Ok. Let's say I wanted to 'live' at Disney hotels. How much would that cost.
Well.. not as much as I thought at first.
A high season rate for a tower room at Contemporary is 550$ a night. So a year there would cost about $200,750.
A high season rate for a basic room at the Grand Floridian is 720$ a night.. So a year there would cost about $262,800.
A million dollars would buy you 11,363 DVC points at 88$ a point.
That's enough points to give you the full year .. EACH YEAR.. in a studio thru 2054 at Saratoga Springs with about 4000 points left over each year for special occasion upgrades.
Ahhh.. to dream.
Of course, you could just buy a house in Orlando. But what fun would that be.
