Hey - WDW gets hit by hurricanes too
I just think the whole premise of DVC is that your dues
should be less than the hotel room rack rate. So, yeah if you have concerns that won't be true, then I'd be worried about dues. But otherwise, I think the focus on dues is a little overblown. Whether I'm saving $20/point or $25/point over rack, I'm still saving money.
I think more in terms that people buy DVC for the whole purpose of saving money. Maybe I'm wrong, but that's why I bought. So kind of good to think about "What if I didn't spend any/less money, and just put it in a mutual fund to pay for future vacations?"
