Do you not have a family member that you intend to pass it down to? Even if they’re not Disney people they may want to sell it and we’ll certainly get more profit selling the Polynesian versus SSR
happens and then it will be your problem. That SSR loss hit will be reason number 6 for me
Of course, the economic analysis holds even you're going to be done with Disney earlier than 2050. Now, if you're only doing this DVC thing for 5-10 years, I'd probably steer away from direct points altogether, although I could make the argument for PVB, but definitely not RIV or the SSR/CCV flash sales we've seen. It's one reason I passed on the CCV flash sale and am sticking with resale CCV. I did go direct with my RIV points because I feel pretty good about keeping those for a long time and possibly passing them on to my kids. PVB, with the smaller differential between direct and resale, especially if you don't already have blue card benefits - that additional cost could be recouped pretty quickly.
I have bought from quite a few people who were selling after they inherited it or that were helping an elderly relative get rid of it.
You need to turn that into a bumper sticker like they did on Forrest Gump
