Yeah i hear you

That's the way I lean. I think the biggest thing is I like negotiating for good deals, so it's tough to be left out.

I get it. But if current uncertainty has you uncomfortable, wait until some of that uncertainty is gone before making big money moves!

I mention BLT because most of our points are there. OKWE because our direct points are there and I wouldn't mind having more okw points to get GVs, although the dues are unpleasant. We have never been to Aulani. I bought them because I got them for $70 pp when disney took every contract I negotiated (think it was 10+ contracts). We tried to go in AUL in 2020 for our 20th but didn't think being separated from our kids by land was smart. This year we were going to Cali, then Aul, then Tokyo and HK for our 25th but now we have to book outside of USA so who knows when we will get to AUL. With that info as background, would you still go SSR?

If you bought aul for $70 pp why swap for SSR that is listed for more?

But I'm in the middle of finishing my basement so it's probably a no from me. But that doesn't stop me from checking on DVC deals every day

I feel this. We got water in part of our basement last summer. We had everything waterproofed and regraded part of our yard. But we still need to get walls and flooring back up in the room where the water came in. So knowing that project is on the horizon, I'm resisting the urge to add more DVC right now. But it's hard because a contract for almost exactly what I want came on the market a few days ago (VGC.) I'm going to be responsible though.

The AUL market is REALLY flooded right now and you have commissions, estoppel, and closing costs on a new contract…..

In other words…. “My spouse won’t let me”

I would wait. Even with banking, you're too far out to personally use any points you bought today. Also, the more points you have, the more you'll be paying in annual dues (to the US economy).

Yeah i hear you

Maybe shift this hobby to researching your Tokyo and Paris Disney trips.

wishing for the best for your PVB contract— I can see why it’s tempting for Disney— they can claim ROFR is still alive for PVB (and let the bigger brokers trumpet it to try to get people to keep buying closer to $160 and up), but it’s a small contract so it doesn’t cost much capital.
