Let's ease off on the condescending comments and animations people. The OP of this sub-topic said he would never put that kind of money up front so case closed. If you want to discuss this further, please start a new thread where people are willing to do the math on both sides of the argument.
Without continuing the discussion of if buying retail can save money, can someone explain what type of VIP perks you get that might tempt someone into spending $100,000? I mean there are so many fancy timeshares out there that the $100,000 could go to. I wonder if that money couldn't be spent getting lots of nice TS for many weeks? Or even going to fancy hotels that pamper you? What is so great about the VIP service? Again, not wondering about saving money, just wondering what the perks are. Please debate the saving of money elsewhere as no one in this thread is interested in purchasing anymore.
I forgot you:annoyed: do not like proven facts, rules and math if proves you wrong like it has in the past.
I would suggest you study that about Wyndham system before you take any one to task about condescending comments about a system as your post indicates you know very little about by your questions.
Seeing that this string is about how timesharing can save you money spending despite as am1 suggested, in most experianced Tuggers have posted Wyndham is NOT cost effective and anyone saying over losing over 90% of $100,000 is a good value needs to be called on as 4 of us have.
The person was making condescending comments as Quote "The point of this thread was to show how timeshares can save people money. A Wyndham Platinum ownership can save people money if it is done properly. I do not need to explain the math away. If someone was interested in it they can calculate the math on their own. I will stand behind the fact that a Wyndham Platinum ownership is a very good way to enjoy timesharing and save money in the process."Unquote The facts and figures show that am1's claim to be in deep error to say it in the kindest way.
am1 postings are sad
if if someone belives he is correct and follows his advice. I looked into Wyndham and they have some nice resorts but as am1 they had ONLY 80 resorts and am1 agreed they are not the top of the line resorts.
Why pay top of the line maintenace fees for a limited selection of about 80 resorts if they are not top of the line resorts when other low cost options of dually afiilated resorts give you access to about 4,000 resorts worldwide.
To pay anywere near $100,000 for banking on last minute 10- to 15 prime time reservations is IMHO terrible math and horrible economics when you will lose $90,000 to $95,000 when you go to dump them on the resale market that isIMHO insane, The typical 3 bedroom red time Wyndham takes 154,000 Wyndham points for one week and more. So that is only just abot 7 full weeks in red time.
Note that am1 said the Wyndham resort sale I posted on ebay had higher maintence fees for Wyndham but am1 did not post a total of what the average would be, did he? No the case is not closed unless you are a moderator because he should supply the facts to back up his claim about that maintenace fee.
In regards to jumping on me for the second time for my animations people, I will put them were I feel appropreate when regular words do not seems get the facts accross.
So if you want to be
that is your choice.

math away so it would be a waste of time unless you were a Wyndham salesman pitching some heat at some off of the street newbie trying to earn a commission during at sit.
