So I has was dragged to another Timeshare presentation last night..... I had to laugh it seem like I was actually living an episode of "King of the Hill". It was hilarious!!!

anyway....here is my thought question for this post....

Why would I buy a timeshare??!!??

Maybe some of you have them and so I seriously ask WHY?!?!?!

Here are the details for what they offered me last night.

16,000 credits (which equivalents to maybe a 2-4 weeks hotel (oh sorry a condo) accommodations.

All for the great low price of $32,000!!!!

Wait that's not all you also get to pay maintenance fees on the property you don't own, but own. It is only $974 a year.

That's right folks, if you give me $32,000 I will let you pay $1000 to use a condo 2 weeks out of the year!!

ok so the sells pitch last was if you go to a hotel say for 14 days a year at a $100 a night ($1400 a year) times that by 50 years, because you plan on vacationing every year right? oh yea we need to add inflation to this so now your 50 years of 2 weeks vacation now costs you $322,000. WOW now that $32,000 doesn't seem that bad, right?!?!

oh let's think about this $32000 + $1000 *50 years= $82,000!!! and that is not including inflation.

And here is the best part ladies and gentleman, when you die you can will this "ownership" to your children so they can pay the $1000 a year to use the "property".

One last thought they don't call it Time Share anymore, because it is more flexible. Soooo

Lets all go buy and Timeshare, not Timeshare plan!!!! I have nothing better to do with $82,000.

Oh Wretched man that I am!

Ok, So I feel like crap! why? do you care? well if you do continue to read......

My first post on this blog was me whining about my wife's lack of thought towards our 13th Anniversary.... well I just got finished watching and reading a friend's blog... yea guess what they did on their 6th anniversary, sat in a hospital waiting to find out if their son had a disease that we would die in 6 months or lukemia where he would have a long hard battle for the next year!!!

Here is his link:

WARNING:
Do NOT watch the videos they will make you cry your little heart out. Yes I did!!!

My anniversary sounds wonderful in comparison. I got to go to a last minute dinner with all four of my beautiful wonderful daughters and share it with my most amazing wife (even if she didn't get me a card). I pray that my friends 7th anniversary will be cancer free and that they have a dinner with all the beautiful children.

Oh the wretched weak and pathetic man that I am.

My Other Blog

I was thinking that some of you may think that this is kind of weird to start out a blog with a Anniversary Downer.... So I thought I would link to my other Blog.... same theme my thoughts... so beware...

Anniversary?!?!

So..... I have hit my 13th anniversary with My Lovely Wife. Although I didn't do anything spectacular, but I did bring home flowers and a card (that was purchased a week before).

What did my wife do..... a two sentence blog. Yeah I feel loved.

So that evening my wife asked "What did you expect, we have four kids"

hmmm what did I expect..... Well that got me thinking.

What does she expect for Valentine's Day, Her Birthday, Mother's Day.......

I just wanted a little love, thought, some appreciation more than two sentences on her Blog for her girlfriends, not me.

So here is my question for the day, What should one expect for their anniversary?
